the distance between any two bases on a baseball diamond is 90 feet.What is the best approximation for the direct distance from home plate to second base?

Question

A baseball diamond's four bases form a square with 90 foot sides. A right triangle is formed by home plate, first and second base. The distance from second base to home is the hypotenuse of that triangle.

Apply the Pythagorean theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2 to the right triangle and you will have the answer. In this case, a = b = 90. Solve for c.

Answer 3

Which statement is true about the following pair of triangles?
Square with one side 30 am done side 60 and a smaller square one side 6 and one side 3

Answer 4

93 ft

Answer 5

this was literally posted before i was born

Answer 6

d^2 = a^2 + b^2.
a=90, b=90

d^2 = 90^2 + 90^2 >>> d^2 = 2 * 90^2

d = 90 sq.rt.2 ft.
