Answer 1

Answer:

Hey!

Your answer is C.42.4yd

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 2 ways you can work this on out...

1. Using Pythagoras Theorem...

= 30^2 + 30^2 = 1,800 (30^2=900 so you've added 2 of those to make 1,800)

= SQUARE ROOT THE ANSWER OF 1,800

$\sqrt{x} 1,800$= 42.42640687119285‬

TO GET A MORE PRECISE ANSWER WE ROUND IT UP TO 1 decimal place

= 42.4 yd is the diagonal length of the dance floor!!

HOPE THIS HELPS!!
