and 10w yards long. What is an expression for the
distance from one corner to the opposite corner?

Answer 1

`√((6w)^2+(10w)^2)`

Explanation:

You need to use Pythagoras' theorem:

`c=√(a^2+b^2)` where a and b are the sides of the field.

So the distance from one corner to the opposite corner =
`√((6w)^2+(10w)^2)`
