Describe OR Draw:

207.49 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the attachment.

We have been given that on a baseball field, the pitcher’s mound is 60.5 feet from home plate. During practice, a batter hits a ball 257 feet at an angle of 31° to the right of the pitcher’s mound.

We can see from our attachment that point home plate, pitcher's mound and outfielder form a triangle and we need to figure out distance between pitcher's mound and outfielder (c).  

As we have been given two sides and included angle of our triangle, so we will use law of cosines to solve our given problem.

Upon substituting our given values in above formula we will get,

Let us take square root of both sides of our equation.

Therefore, the outfielder thrown the ball approximately 207.49 ft.
