    C, 600 ft.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    a^2+b^2=c^2

    C is always the hypotenuse/diagonal. Let A represent length and B represent width.

    A^2+450^2=750^2

    A^2+202500=562500

    562500-202500=360000=A^2

    take the square root of both sides to solve for A and the value of A is 600.

    600 feet

    Step-by-step explanation:

    I am assuming that the park is rectangular, and the together, the length, with and diagonal form a right triangle.

    In this case, we are given

    Diagonal = 750 ft = hypotenuse

    Width = 450 feet

    Find length L

    Using the Pythagorean theorem,

    L² + 450² = 750²

    L² = 750² - 450² = 360,000

    L = √360,000 = 600 feet
