Since you are looking for the distance from home plate to second base, you are actually looking for the length of the diagonal of the square. Use the Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c² where a and b are the side lengths and c is the length of the diagonal.

$90^2+90^2=c^2\\8100+8100=c^2\\16200=c^2\\\sqrt{16200}=c\\\boxed{90\sqrt2}=c\qquad \qquad \text{which is approximately 127.28}\\\\\\\\\text{Halfway between home plate and 2nd base means divide that length by 2:}\\\\\dfrac{90\sqrt2}{2}=\boxed{45\sqrt2}$

Angel paints three rooms with two gallons of paint. How many rooms can he paint with fifteen gallons of paint?

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

22 rooms

Step-by-step explanation:

If two gallons of paint covers 3 rooms then you need to divide 15 gallons of paint by 2 gallons of paint = 7.5 gallons of paint. then you need to multiply 7.5 gallons of paint by 3 rooms = 22.5..... so that means you can paint 22 full rooms.
