∙ 15y agoSince the baselines form 90 degree angles with each other, and the bases are each 90 feet apart, you can use the pythagorean theorem to solve 90*90+90*90= a squared 8100+8100 = a squared 16200= a squared. Square root of 16200 = about 127.2792206 feet

You can find the distance between first and third on any baseball or softball field by using the following formula: A squared plus B squared equals C squared. A is the distance between home and first base B is the distance between home and third base C is the distance between first base and third base. So with 70 ft. bases, it would be 99 feet.

Why is the pitchers mound not in the center of the baseball diamond?
This is because the rules of baseball say the mound is a distance from homeplate that is less than halfway the distance between homeplate and 2nd base. The distance is the same between each base in order (the same from home to 1st, 1st to 2nd, 2nd to 3rd, 3rd to home.) This results in the distance between homeplate and 2nd equal to the distance between 1st and 3rd. If you draw a line between homeplate and 2nd, and a line between 1st and 3rd, the lines will intersect in the center of the baseball diamond. However, the center point will be behind the pitcher's mound. You can use the Pythagorean Theorem to prove the distance from the mound to home is less than the center point, but that is another question. (Hint: The distance squared from home to first plus the distance squared from first to second divided by 2).
