Answer:

900 sq. yd.

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we know that the baseball diamond is a square, so we use the equation of a square, A = [tex]a^{2}[/tex]

Since all sides of a square are equal, each is always gonna be 30 yards. So we substitute a for 30

A = [tex]a^{2}[/tex]

A = [tex]30^{2}[/tex]

A = 900 sq. yd.

Which gives you the area of the diamond as 900 sq. yd.
