Answer:

i think 28 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

1. use pythagorean theorem to plug in variables.

b=77 yards    → [tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]

c= 85 yards  

[tex]a^2+ 77^2 = 85^2[/tex]  

2. solve for a.

[tex]a^2+77^2=85^2[/tex]→[tex]a^2= 1296[/tex]→[tex]a=\sqrt{1296}[/tex]→[tex]a=36[/tex]

3. Add the a-value and the b-value.

36+77= 113

4. Subtract that by 85 yards.

113-85=28
