Here is how we are going to get the answer. Notice that the rectangle is divided into two congruent triangles and the legs both measures 120 and 90 meters. So we are going to use the pythagorean theorem which is a2 + b2 = c2
So 90^2 + 120^2 = c^2
8100 + 14400 = c^2
c^2 = 22500
Just square the given answer and the final answer would be 150. Therefore, the players run 150 meters. Hope this helps.
