Help on Equation (Was: modeling monorail ramps) —Tore Eriksson
It looks like the I could create quick mockups for the ramps if only I could calculte the radius of a thought circle made of MR ramps. Here's a triangle with a 90 deg's angle AB and the hypotenuse c equlas the radius: a=640 b=c-120 c=<unknown> That (...) (21 years ago, 26-Aug-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

	(...) I calculate c = 5300 / 3 = 1766.667 The math: c^2 = (c-120)^2 + 640^2 c^2 = c^2 - 240c + 120^2 + 640^2 0 = -240c + 424000 240*c = 424000 c = 424000 / 240 = 5300 / 3 = 1766.667 Hope this helps. John (21 years ago, 26-Aug-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
