Haley is standing in the base path between second and third base when she fields the ball. She is 24 feet from second base and needs to make the throw to first base, assuming the field is square, how far does she need to throw the ball? Round your answer to the nearest tenth

Since the field is square, the distance from second base to first base is the same as the distance from second base to third base.

Therefore, Haley needs to throw the ball a distance of 24 feet to first base.
