Question

American football field measure of 100 yards between the end zone and are 53 1/3 yards wide. is the length of the diagonal across thid field more less than 100 yards? explain

Answer 1

It is more than 100 yards. Take the equation a^2+b^2=c^2. plug in a(100) and b(53 1/3) and find the squares of those. then add them up. that should equal 12840.89. then find the square root of that which is 113.32 (rounded). so it is more than 100 yards.
