Question 5

A hockey pitch has dimensions 91.4 m long and 55 m wide. During a training session the players must run from one corner diagonally to the opposite corner across the pitch. The coach makes them do this 10 times. What distance do they run?

Answer 5

x² = 55² + 91.4²
= 3025 + 8353.96
= 11378.96
square root of 11378.96 = 106.6722
x= 107m

Question 6

A hockey pitch has dimensions 91.4 m long and 55 m wide. During a training session the players must run from one corner diagonally to the opposite corner across the pitch. The coach makes them do this 10 times. What distance do they run?

x² = 55² + 91.4²
= 3025 + 8353.96
= 11378.96
square root of 11378.96 = 106.6722
