Question

american football fields measure 100 yards long between the end zones,and are 53 1/3 yards wide.Is the length of the diagonal cross this field more or less than 120 yards ?

Answer 1

a^2+b^2=c^2
100^2+53 1/3^2= c^2
10000+2844≈c^2
c≈113 yards. As a result, the answer is less than 120 yards. Hope it help!
