Kim walked diagonally across a rectangular field that measured 100 feet by 240 feet how far did kim walk?

This question is asking about the hypotenuse of the triangle that we made within the rectangle. Using the Pythagorean Theorem, we can use the formula to find the hypotenuse of the triangle. Replacing a with 100 and b with 240, we get the equation

Simplifying the equation, we get 10,000 + 57,600 =
We then get 67,600 =
We then further find the square root of 67,600, which happens to be 260.

Kim has walked 260 feet across the rectangular field.
