An indoor soccer field is a rectangle that is 700 feet long by 250 feet wide. Coach Garza is having his players run diagonally from one corner of the field to the opposite corner. What is the distance the players must run?

743.30343766 . . . ft

Round it to whatever place your teacher requires it to be at.

Step-by-step explanation: So, this question can be treated as one in which you need to find the hypotenuse. If you cut the soccer field diagonally, the length and width are still the same. The two legs of our triangle are 700 ft and 250 ft. The formula for finding the hypotenuse is a²+b²=c². Input the numbers, and it becomes 700²+250²=c². 700² is 490,000 and 250² is 62,500. 490,000 + 62,500 = 552,500. This means that 552,500 is c², and in order to find c, or the hypotenuse/diagonal, we need to find the square root of 552,500. The square root of 552,500 is 743.3034376 . . . , which you can round to whatever place you need it to be at.
