Ok, as the radius of the courtyard is approximately 15 feet, and the circumference of the circle is 15pi2, or 30pi, and if I travel at a rate of 1ft per stride, at 2 seconds per stride and D= R x T, then 30pi=2sec.per ft x T then I should be able to walk from here, assuming I am at 130 degree arc from the door, 13/36of 30 pi div. by 2sec. per ft = Time so I should be able to arrive at the door in 17 seconds with a marginal error of 4 seconds.
I glanced at my watch and started walking. 16 seconds.
“Hey Vaughn! What are you doing?”
I ignored the voice and entered the door. I walked to my friends and then I saw her. I began calculating, using Tangent, Pythagorean Theorem, and the Distance formula how long it would take me to walk over to her. Ha, like I had the guts.
D=square root of (tan(36)^{2 +20}2) R= 2ft per sec T= variable
God she was pretty, why did I have to be such a nerd?
