Answer:

84.85 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the sides are 3600 feets

Hence, side 1 = 3600 ; side = 3600 (since it is a square)

The distance, d from second base to Home plate is the length of the diagonal, which can be obtained using Pythagoras :

d² = s1² + s2²

s1², s2² = 3600

Hence,

d = sqrt(3600 +. 3600)

d = sqrt(7200)

d = 84.85 ft
