If you need the geometry and trigonometry I'll post those. Instead I found an answer at this link: http://jwilson.coe.uga.edu/EMAT6450/Class%20Projects/Scarpelli/Scarpelli_MathematicsBaseballActivity..... The distance from home plate to the pitcher's mound is 60.5 feet and from home plate to second base is <span>127.28 feet. Pitcher's Mound to 2nd base = </span><span>
<span>
<span>
66.78</span> </span>f</span>eet
Given those distances, we KNOW a 50 foot sprinkler will NOT reach home plate and second base from the pitcher's mound.
I didn't figure out the pitcher's mound to 1st or to 3rd, since the question is already answered.
In your question where there is an acres which has a circular irrigator with a center pivot and covers 20 acres in the farm, the ask is how long is the irrigation boom in feet from the center to its farthest extent. The best answer that i could give is 526.6 feet.
