A baseball diamond is a square 90' on a side. So the direct line distance from 1st to 3rd could be found via the pythagorian theorum,
a^2+b^2=c^2, or
90*90+90*90 = 16,200
so c would be the square root of that, or 127.28 feet.

It's 127 feet 4 inches and a fraction.

The baselines are laid out on 90 degree angles, 90 feet apart. Use the Pythagorean theorem.
I don't do people's homework for them because I don't help them to cheat themselves.

a squared + b squared = c squared.
