To find the length of the hypotenuse (c) in a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem, which states that in a right triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse (c) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

In this case, let's assume that 48yd and 64yd are the two other sides of the triangle.

So, we have:

c^2 = 48^2 + 64^2
c^2 = 2304 + 4096
c^2 = 6400

Taking the square root of both sides to solve for c, we get:

c = √6400
c ≈ 80

Therefore, the length of the hypotenuse is approximately 80 yards.
