To find the diagonal measurement of a rectangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem, which states that the square of the hypotenuse (diagonal) of a right triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. In this case, the diagonal measurement of a 40' x 60' rectangle can be calculated as follows:
Diagonal = √(40^2 + 60^2) = √(1600 + 3600) = √5200 ≈ 72.11 feet.
Therefore, the diagonal measurement of a 40' x 60' rectangle is approximately 72.11 feet.

Take each of two sides, and square them- multiply them times themselves- 40x40, and 60 x 60. That will give you 1600 and 3600. Add them together- 5200. Find the square root of 5200- which is ABOUT 72.11. That is the diagonal- and how you use the Pythagorean theorem

60 x 40 = 2400 40 x 60 = 2400 4800 / 100 = 48
60+40+55+x=360 x=205
60*40*1=2400 ft**3 of sand
x=100
