3 feet is equal to 1 yard and 3 feet is 36 inches. 288 inches divided by 36 is 8 so 8 yards is equal to 288 inches.
The square root of 142 is 11.916
Tanya run 50 yards across the diagonal of the rectangular field.
<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:
Step 1 :
- Length of the rectangular field = 40 yards
- width of the rectangular field = 30 yards
Step 2 :
Measure of the diagonal = √(length^2 + width^2 )
Step 3 :
Diagonal = √(40^2 + 30^2 )
= √(1600 + 900)
= √2500
= ±50
Step 4 :
Since distance cannot be negative, The measure of diagonal = 50 yards.
∴ Tanya runs diagonally across a rectangular field is 50 yards.
