Question

When a player hits a home run in baseball, he runs in a square past all bases until he returns to home plate.
The area of the field between the four bases is 729 m2.

How many meters does a player cover when hitting a homerun?

Answer 1

Answer:

108 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given- Area of the field =

${729m}^{2}$

We know that,

Area of square =

${side}^{2}$

$729{m}^{2} = {side}^{2} \\ \sqrt{729 {m}^{2} } = side \\ 27m = side$

Now, Distance the player covered when hitting the home run = Perimeter of the field

= 4 (side)

= 4 (27m)

= 108 m
