oh man i hated those... dont you ave to the tan cos sin things?

those are for angles I beleive...

yea i just need the distance :;

well its probably a special triangle... a 90,45,45?

nope its not :l

its a 90,60,30...

so whats $x \sqrt{2} = 50km$

well i dont know ... uhmmm i forgot all that stuff hold on let me work

nvm its $x \sqrt{3} = 50$

11. blondie16 Group Title

I have no idea how to solve that xd

I'm thinking the answer is 75

14. blondie16 Group Title

i think its aprox. 9.128709

15. blondie16 Group Title

17. blondie16 Group Title
