Question

at a certain baseball diamond the distance form home plate through the pitcher rubber to the far well (to dead center) is 361 ft given that the infield forms a square 90 ft on each side how far is it form third base to dead center round your answer to nearest tenth

Answer 1

H is Home Plate, A is First Base. T is Third Base. C is Dead Center.
HA = HT = 90 ft. ; HC = 361 ft.
Angle THA = 90 degrees. So angle THC = 45 degrees
What is TC?

In triangle TCH use the law of cosines to find TC.
TC^2 = HT^2 + HC^2 - 2(HT)(HC)cos(THC)
= 90^2 + 361^2 - 2(90)(361)cos(45)

Find TC.
