Answer:

<h2>a. 41.5 ft</h2><h2>b. 41.5 ft.</h2><h2>c. 90°.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that a baseball diamond is a square, which means all sides are equal. In this case, each side is 65 feet long.

It's important that a square is a symmetric figure, as a symmetric quadrilateral, its diagonals are congruent and the bisect each other. That means that the distance from every corner to the center is the same.

a. Based on square definitions, the distance from the pitching rubber to first base is 41.5 feet.

b. Based on square definitions, the distance from the pitching rubber to second base is 41.5 feet.

c. if the pitcher faces the home plate, he needs to turn his 90° to face the first base, that is because diagonals are perpendicular each other, which means they have a right angle between.

The answer is 355 houses, but can someone tell me how please?
Ymorist [56]
So you do 20%*426 to get 85.2 then you would subtract 85.2 from 426 because they sold 20% more than last year.  On top of that the answer isn't 355 it is 340.8.

katelyn bought 5.68 pounds of peaches. the peaches were on sale for 1.49 a pound. how much did lately spend on peaches
Leya [2.2K]
So Katelyn bought 5.68 pounds of peaches. And one pound of peaches cost $1.49. So that would mean that we would have to multiply the pounds of peaches she bought, with how much each pound costs. 5.68 × 1.49 = ?

Once you multiply these two decimals, you would get 8.4632. So she spent $8.4632 on 5.68 pounds of peaches. You would multiply the two decimals to find how much she spent in all.
