We are told that the lowest part of the fence (that is, the fence at the point in the park at which it is hardest to get a home run) is to be 10 feet high. This will be at the point furthest from home plate. That point will be somewhere on the quarter circle.
Input :=
s1 = Solve[(x-250)^2 + (y-150)^2 == 175^2, y]
Output =
2
300 - Sqrt[90000 - 4 (54375 - 500 x + x )]
{{y -> ------------------------------------------},
2
2
300 + Sqrt[90000 - 4 (54375 - 500 x + x )]
{y -> ------------------------------------------}}
2
The second solution gives us the top of the circle, and we know the furthest point from the origin lies on the top of the circle.
Input :=
ycirc[x_] = s1[[2,1,2]];
Input :=
d[x_] = Sqrt[x^2 + ycirc[x]^2];
Input :=
Plot[d[x],{x,250,425}];
Input :=
s2 = Solve[d'[x]==0,x] //N
Output =
{{x -> 400.061}}
Input :=
xfar = s2[[1,1,2]];
Input :=
ycirc[xfar]
Output =
240.037
Input :=
d[xfar]
Output =
466.548
So that's the most distant point on the outfield fence, and at that point the height of the fence should be 10 feet.
