Assuming the line A to B is straight ahead, and perpendicular to the line A to C :

A to B is 100 yds, A to C is 50 yds. If C is directly to the right of A, you have a right-angle triangle. The distance from C to B is the hypotenuse. To find the hypotenuse of a right-angle triangle, use the formula A² + B² = C².

Using the formula:

A² + B² = C²

50² + 100² = C²

2500 + 10000 = C²

12500 = C²

sq rt of 12500 = C

111.80339 = C

(The distance from point C to point B is 111.80339 yards)
