Question

Tom is playing at the opposite corner of the playing field to his friend . If the playing field is 180m wide and Tom is 300m away from his friend, how long is the playing field

Answer 1

240 m

Explanation:

we can picture this as a right triangle

(180)^2 + (l)^2 = (300)^2

300 would be the diagonal of the triangle since it is at the opposite corner

180 would be the height/leg of the triangle
