Answer 1

Answer:

$D = 72.2\ yd$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Length\ (L)= 58\ yd$

$Width \ (W)= 43\ yd$

Required

Determine the diagonal (D)

The relationship between D, L and W can be gotten using Pythagoras Theorem:

$D^2 = L^2 + W^2$

Substitute values for L and W

$D^2 = 58^2 + 43^2$

$D^2 = 3364 + 1849$

$D^2 = 5213$

Take Square root of both sides

$D = \sqrt{5213}$

$D = 72.2011080247$

$D = 72.2\ yd$ (Approximated)
