Abaseball field is in the shape of a square that is 90 feet on a side as shown. a player catches a ball at point x, which is three-quarters of the way between 2nd base & 3rd base, and throws the ball to 1st base.

what is the distance the player throws the call?

The distance the player throws the ball is

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure with letters to better understand the problem

In the right triangle ABX

XA --------> is the distance the player throws the ball (hypotenuse of the right triangle)

Applying the Pythagoras Theorem

substitute the values

y-y1=4(x-x1)

step-by-step explanation:

this is point-slope form since you only have 4 as the slope it goes in place of m

hope this : )
