I haven't used a Big Shot since 06 I believe. Hand tossing is a good skill to have :)

I do the same thing fairly regular like. Did your 40' top hurt anything on its way down, Brian?

I'mma eyeballer too.

That cannot exist in this universe:P You're creating a right triangle with 2 equal legs and a longer hypotenuse. You're sighting along the hipotenuse and what you see along the hypotenuse is what will hit where you're standing give or take the height of your eye compred to the height of the...

Ha no worries, the 39.5x39.5 is bugging me.

The Pythagorean theorem is what we are using, adapting it to find the leg. The Pythagorean theorem is: A2+B2=C2 If you have the legs, then that will find you the hypotenuse. If you need to find a leg and you have a leg and the hypotenuse, then either: A2=C2-B2 or B2=C2-A2 The legs can be...

Ha no, it's: A2+B2=C2 Although what you wrote isn't incorrect. It could also be: A2=C2-B2 They all are mathmatically equal.

You're getting it, I'm still working on the 39.5x39.5.

I use the one on my computer. There isn't an easy way for most folks to do square roots in their head. The 39.5x39.5 triangle would be something aweful, I'll figure it out while you figure the last problem I gave ya. The angles in a triangle equal 180, fwiw.

Right you are then :) What about if you know the tree is 45' tall, and you're 45' away from it, how far is it from you to the top of the tree via line of sight?

Don't do 39.5 and 39.5, you'll wind up with a triangle that doesn't have a 90* angle (tree would be leaning)and I doubt your ready for the trig. Plus, I'd have to really think about getting that right. Thus I changed one 39 to 49.

What would be the height if you were 39.5' from the tree and the top of the tree was 49.5'?

A^2+B^2=C^2 45 is the hypotenuse, or C. 30 yards is a leg and would be either A or B. A^2= 30x30= 900 C^2=45x45= 2025 So, we have A and C, so let's get B. 30^2+ B^2=45^2 900 + B^2=2025 B^2=2025-900 B^2=1125 B= Square Root of 1125 B= 33.54yards Thus the tree is 33.54 yards tall.

I have to watch the vid to get the two distances you have?

What's the distances you have?
