If the bases are 60' apart, the distance from home plate to second base is 84'10"
By using the Pythagorean theorem, about 85 feet.
70 feet 8 1/2 inches.
What is the distance to second base from where? It's 70 feet from 1st base to 2nd base...70 feet from 2nd base to 3rd base...and it'sabout 99 feet to 2nd base from home plate
180 feet While this is a technically true answer, it is only true if one measures the base runner's path. The distance from home to second, as a crow flies, is about 128'.
Do the math by using pythagoream therom. make a triangle using homeplate first base and second base with the bases being 90 ft apart. the distance from home plate to 2nd base comes out to 127ft 4in.
Bases are different distances apart at different levels of play in baseball. Here is how you can find the distance across the diamond (home to second, or first to third) on any field: What is the distance between bases? Square that answer (multiply it by itself). Double that answer. Find the square root of that answer. The answer you get will be the distance from home to second or from first to third.
A squared plus B squared equals C squared. You are looking at an equilateral right triangle. The angle between the line from home plate to first base and from first base to second base is 90 degrees. The distance from home plate to first base and from first base to second base is the same. Using this formula, you can find the distance from home plate to second base no matter what the distance between bases is. (By the way, this works out to about 98.99 feet.)Actually, the formula is: The square root of A squared plus B squared equals C squared.
Mlb (bases) are (90 ft.) apart. From the (pitching) rubber to home plate is (60 ft. 6 in.) and there is no set distance from the plate to the out field wall
In Major League Baseball, the bases are 90' apart. The distance from home plate to the nearest fence is 250' or more.
In Major League Baseball, the bases are 90' apart. The distance from home plate to the nearest fence is 250' or more.
The baseball playing field (or diamond) is shaped like a diamond. There are three bases (first, second, and third) are on the corners away from home plate. The distance between these bases (on the basepath or distance straight from first base to second base, or second base to third base, etc.) is 90 feet in Major League baseball. In Little League, the distance in 60 feet.
