Children enjoy a story and math-related activity. Those who enjoy this program are comfortable in the room with other children and without a parent or caregiver.
The companion to the scholar, this is the more baffling of the two scultures guarding the mysteriously empty lot.
This isn't what I believe--it's a satire.
My roommate jokingly asked me to do her Calc III homework while I'm waiting for her to go to lunch with me. I picked up the book hoping that I'd be able to at least make sense of a problem (I passed Calc I with an A), but there was no way I could do anything constructive with her homework. Instead, I interpreted the instructions literally.
I made this necklace with a red agate heart as the focal bead. There are also coordinating red agate faceted rectangles, silver-plated heishe disks as spacers, and Czeck Druk glass in opaque black. I strung them on silver wire. My favorite part of this necklace is a great little globe closure that closes magnetically. Math comes into play with the pattern I used...adding one with each set. I'm really happy with the way this one came out.
JUSTINE!

I know A (it's actually 0,0) I also know B, C, and theta. C is clamped between A and B.
I need to know at what distance (x) along the line at y=C would a point make a triangle with the angle theta and the opposite side AB.
Should have paid more attention in school.
UPDATE: So @brucehoult found a good solution. His Summary:
The trick here is that, no matter what theta is, as you vary C from 0 to B the solution point lies on a cicle. When theta is 90 degrees, the center of the circle lies on the line between A and B, but for other values of theta it doesn't, so you need to find it.

This is a problem I never saw in the text books. The solution means that the camera in Chopper 2 can automatically zoom in and out (translate in and out really) when the playing area becomes shorter or taller, but still display exactly the area where everything is happening. Looks great.
Stay in school!
