PLEASE HELP I don't know what to do!! (will give brainliest for best answer)

(image below)

e) The diagonal of square A, marked off by the red stars, is where the concession stand is located. A local high school band is performing at the outdoor theater on a summer evening. The band has a school banner that is 40-feet long, and band members would like to hang it across the concession stand to let people know they are performing. Estimate the length of the concession stand to determine if the school banner can fit across the length of the concession stand. Show your work and explain your reasoning. (2 points)

SQUARE C = 1 side is 50 ft

SQUARE B = 1 side is 40 ft

SQUARE A = 1 side is 30 ft

If you look at a side of square B and imagine moving the two stars on the side of it, it should fit "in your head". As for a more mathmatical answer- the two stars are diagonal from eachother on a square with 30 feet sides. The diagonal part of a square is always longer than the sides, and it is obviously not 50 ft (comparing it to the square C) so it must be 40 feet.

Answer:

The school banner can fit across the length of the concession stand

Step-by-step explanation:

The following information is missing:

The length if the sides: c is 50 feet long, b is 40 foot long, and a is 30-foot long.

The distance between the two red stars of the picture makes the hypotenuse of a right triangle, where two sides of length a (30 ft) are the legs. From Pythagorean theorem, diagonal of quare A is:

diagonal² = 30² + 30²

diagonal = √1800 = 42.43 ft

which is longer than the banner.
