Is there a picture for this?
To find the length of the diagonals, Troy should use the Pythagorean Theorem. The diagonal is going to be the hypotenuse of the triangle (the side directly across from the 90 degree angle).
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
6^2 + 10 ^2 = c^2
136 = c^2; find the square root of 136
c = 11.66 feet
Troy's diagonals are approximately 11.66 feet.

Answer:</h3>
Your selection is correct: 180 hours
<h3>
Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
The pool is apparently 18000 gallons (= 60 gal/h × 300 h). The combined flow from the two hoses is ...
... (40 gal/h) + (60 gal/h) = 100 gal/h
So, the time required with the two hoses is ...
... 18000 gal/(100 gal/h) = 180 h
