When we watch or participate in a sporting event, we seldom
realize that mathematics has anything to do with what’s going
on. In this chapter, we will show that it does. We will show that
math is alive in the world of sports. You will see that variables,
equations, and formulas can be used in determining distances,
analyzing statistics, investigating speeds, and more. For ex-
ample, we will look at distances for passes or kicks in football,
determine how many more hits a baseball player needs to bat
0.300, look at the speed of a sprinter in the 100 meter dash, and
examine the distance on the outside lane of a 400 meter track.
