A Soccer Math Question Let's say you line up for a free kick by taking three steps directly back from the ball and two directly to the side (see diagram below). Assuming each step covers two feet, how many feet are you away from the ball before you make your approach for a deadly shot to the upper right corner? Hint- Pythagorous was born around BC 582. Still need help? try doing a web search for "Pythagorean Theorem" (or look it up in a geometry text). The first Striker player to answer correctly will receive a Baskin-Robbins gift certificate.
