We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the distance the players ran. The diagonal of the rectangle is the hypotenuse of a right triangle, with the sides being the width and length of the rectangle.
Using the Pythagorean theorem, we have:
distance^2 = width^2 + length^2
distance^2 = 90^2 + 120^2
distance^2 = 8100 + 14400
distance^2 = 22500
Taking the square root of both sides, we have:
distance = √22500
distance ≈ 150.9 meters
Therefore, the players ran approximately 150.9 meters.
