Question

What is the length of the diagonal?

Answer 1

Answer:

length of x is 50 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean Theorem:  a^2 + b^2 = c^2

30^2 + 40^2 = c^2

900 + 1600 = c^2

2500 = c^2   need to solve for c, square root both sides

50 = c

Answer 2

50 yards.
Using Pythagorean’s theorem:
A^2 + B^2 = C^2
30^2 + 40^2 = C^2
900 + 1600 = C^2
2500 = C^2
Square root both sides to get:
C = 50 yards.
