billeisele 122 #1 June 22, 2010 need the formula to calculate x & y the 40 & 50 degree angles may change so need the formula not just the answer its been many years since I learned this stuff thanksGive one city to the thugs so they can all live together.

billeisele 122 #8 June 27, 2010 thanks, math formulas worked great, the angle ended up being 42 degrees needed to calculate the length of the galvanized pipe, it is used as a "stiff arm" to attach the jet ski floats back to the floating dock, 45 degrees would have been easy except the pole would have been off the end of the dock, you can see the pole on the float and then at the other end on the dockGive one city to the thugs so they can all live together.
