Will ran the diagonal distance across a square field measuring 40 yards on beachside . James ran the diagonal distance across a rectangular field with a length of 25 yards and a width of 35 yards. Who ran a longer distance, and how much longer did he run?

Respuesta :

Diagonal of will's square field is [tex]D_1=40 \ yards[/tex].

Diagonal of James's rectangular field :

[tex]D_2=\sqrt{35^2+25^2}\\\\D_2=\sqrt{1850}\ yards\\\\D_2=43.01\ yards[/tex]

James runs 3.01 yards more distance than will.

Therefore, James run a longer distance.

Hence, this is the required solution.
