## Step 1The problem describes a rectangle, which is a four-sided polygon with opposite sides equal and all angles equal to 90 degrees. The pool measures 5 meters by 10 meters, which means the sides of the rectangle are 5 meters and 10 meters.## Step 2The distance to swim from one corner of the pool across to the opposite corner is the diagonal of the rectangle. In a rectangle, the diagonal can be calculated using the Pythagorean theorem.### **The Pythagorean theorem is given by **Here, and are the sides of the rectangle, and is the diagonal.## Step 3Substitute the given values into the Pythagorean theorem.### **So, **## Step 4Calculate the square of 5 and 10, add them together, and then take the square root.### **This gives **## Step 5The square root of 125 is approximately 11.18. However, the problem asks for the answer to be rounded to the nearest hundredth, so the final answer is 11.18.
