we are given the length and width of the soccer field which is a rectangle

if we cut in diagonally, we split the rectangle into two right triangles

we are need to find the hypotenuse of the triangle

we can do this by using the pythagorean theorem.

c² = a²+b²

c= hypotenuse

c² = 80²+35²

c² = 6400+1225

c² = 7625

√c = √7625

c =87.3 yards

hope this helped!
