Because it is square, the distance from home to first base is the same as first base to second base.
Home to First is one side of a right triangle, first to second is the second side of the right triangle and then home to second base would be the hypotenuse of a right triangle.
Using the Pythagorean Theorem we can solve for the hypotenuse:
Let C = the hypotenuse:
90^2 + 90^2 = c^2
8100 + 8100 = c^2
16200 = c^2
c = √16200
c = 127.279 feet, round to 127 feet.

Answer:
432 in.^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The side of the suitcase is a rectangle. One length is 24 inches. The diagonal of the rectangle is 30 inches long. The diagonal is a hypotenuse of a right triangle. The length is a leg. We need to find the other leg.
We use the Pythagorean theorem,
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
(24 in.)^2 + b^2 = (30 in.)^2
576 in.^2 + b^2 = 900 in.^2
b^2 = 324 in.^2
b = sqrt(324 in^2)
b = 18 in
area of rectangle = length * width
A = 24 in. * 18 in.
A = 432 in.^2
It equals 5/6. If you want to know why, just ask me.
