Question 729281: a soccer field is a rectangle 90 meter wide AND 120 METER LONG. THE COACH ASKS PLAYERS TO RUN FROM ONE CORNER TO THE CORNER DIAGONALLY ACROSS THE FIELD. HOW FAR DO THE PLAYER RUN Answer by checkley79(3341) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! WHAT YOU HAVE IS A RIGHT TRIANGLE WITH SIDES 90 & 120 METERS.
A^2+B^2=C^2
90^2+120^2=C^2
8,100+14,400=C^2
22,500=C^2
C=SQRT22,500
C=150 METERS IS THE ANSWER FOR THE DIAGONAL DISTANCE.
