The given park ABCD is in the shape of the square, i.e all teh four sides of the part are equal and the angle made by intersection of two side is 90 degree.

i.e.m AB = BC = CD = DA = 120m

and the angle A = Angle B = Angle C = Angle D = 90°

We need to find the length of the diagonal DB,

The side BCD makes a right angle at angle C

In triangle BCD;

BC = 120, CD = 120 for the side DB

Apply Pythagoras theorem;

In a right-angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse side is equal to the sum of squares of the other two sides.

Hypotenuse² = Base ² + Perpendicular²

Substitute, hypotenuse, = DB, Base CD = 120, Perpendicular BC = 120

Hypotenuse² = Base ² + Perpendicular²

DB² = CD² + BC²

DB² = 120² + 120²

DB² = 14400 + 14400

DB² = 28800

DB = 169.70

Since, 169.70 ~ 170

Therefore, DB = 170m

The length of diagonal is 170m

Answer : B) 170m
