Sports American football fields measure 100 yards long between the end zones, and are 53 1_3yards wide. Is the length of the diagonal across this field more or less than 120 yards? Explain.

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]113 \frac{1}{3}[/tex] Yards

Step-by-step explanation:

solving using  Pythagorean Theorem

[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]

[tex]100^2+53.33^2 = c^2[/tex]

[tex]10,000+2844.0889=c^2[/tex]

[tex]12844.1=c^2[/tex] square root

= [tex]113 \frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Base on the explanation above we can tell that the length of the diagonal across this field is less than 120 yards.
