1. this is a baseball field.

behind homeplate is the catchers fence.
from catchers fence to outfield fence is approximately 120 feet.
the far outfield fence is a quarter circle.
find the length of the outfield fence.
formula: circumference =
therefore, the outfield fence length is:

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the formula for circumference of a circle

The formula for the circumference of a circle is \(C = 2\pi r\).

Step2: Calculate the length of the quarter - circle

Since the outfield fence is a quarter - circle and \(r = 120\) feet. The length \(L\) of a quarter - circle is \(\frac{1}{4}\) of the circumference of a full circle.

Substitute \(r = 120\) into the formula:

$$
LATEXBLOCK1
$$

Taking \(\pi\approx3.14\), we get \(L\approx60\times3.14=188.4\) feet.

Answer:

The length of the Outfield Fence is approximately \(188.4\) feet.
