Quite some time ago, I wrote a little program in Pascal to figure out the angle from the sides, and the sides from the angle of a right triangle. It's very basic, but it saves a lot of time looking up sin, cos, tan in tables. If you (or anyone else) want a copy, send me an e-mail. Klaus Hameyer Burlington, VT (USA)
