Skew Lines

This is a picture of the inside of the Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium during one of the Navy football games. This picture relates quite a lot to geometry because of the set up of the stadium (and many stadiums in general). The field is divided by yards with a total of 100 yards in a large rectangle. A rectangle is a geometric shape. The seating areas also are divded into sections so that the exact number of chairs fit in the amount of area. In this picture,  touchdown zone is divided into many yellow and blue squares, so the people that made the field needed to know the side of the zone they were sllowed to put the squares in, the size of the squares they were going to put in the zone, and the amount of squares that would be put into the zone(s) in total. As for the stadium lights, they need to be put in the exact right spots so that they illuminate the entire stadium, not missing a single part.

This stadium can be found in Annapolis, Maryland right outside of Downtown Annapolis. Football is a popular American sport played in almost every state, therefore many football fields/stadiums had to be made using some of these tactics: 100 yards in the correct sized football field/rectangle, designs in touchdown zones, bleachers/stadium seating, and stadium lights.
