Respuesta :

From the given figure we have a square with a side length of 90 feet

The distance of thrown represents the diagonal of the square

The relation between the diagonal (d) of the square and its side (s) is

[tex]d=s\sqrt[]{2}[/tex]

Since

feet, then

[tex]d=90\sqrt[]{2}feet[/tex]

The answer is A
