  • Finding coordinates of the corners of a square?

    I am trying to solve a problem in which I am given the length of the side of a square and the 2 end points of that side.

    For examples sake, lets say the length is 5 and the endpoints of one side of the square are (0,0) and (5,0). How do I go about finding the other corner points of the square?

    **Note** This particular problem is easy and I can solve it by hand, but I am unable to come up with a formula that will work. I really appreciate any help.

  • Dual monitor setup issue?

    I'm currently running two 19" LCD monitors at 1280 x 1024 and have no issues other than the fact that whichever monitor is set as secondary has a bar cut off from the top and placed on the bottom of the screen. Ive tried moving the entire screen through the monitors control panel but this doesn't solve the issue as it only creates/fixes the black edges that come up.... However, it only seems to do this when things are dragged across both monitors.... Any help would be greatly appreciated...

  • Not getting the muscle definition I want?

    Around a month ago I started working out with various excercises performed on different days and have noticed a large difference in primarily my shoulders, biceps and upper back. However, in my chest and abs I have increased in strength significantly but I am not getting much of an increase in definition. I am 5 10' and around 140 lbs. so weight definitely isn't the issue. I have been using primarily 25 lb. dumb bells and on chest exercises I do 3 sets of 20 reps for bench press. I also do 3 sets of 8 reps for a dumbbell fly. Currently that is all my chest workout consists of with the exception of a couple that I don't know how to describe that use your entire upper body and these have been performed once every 3 days with a day for different muscles on one day and a rest day following that. On ab excercises I have been doing them every other day with various kinds of crunches including a full-body crunch, a bicycle crunch and various exercise ball exercises. Any tips on how to change this problem would be appreciated!

    P.S. Sorry for the length

  • iphone family plan??

    I'm currently one of 3 phones in a family plan that receives unlimited texting. I was thinking about purchasing an iphone 3g and was wondering first if I could add that to the family plan, how much more per month would it be, and if the unlimited texting that is already paid for on the family plan would include the iphone also. Thanks

  • pre-calculus help..........?

    Today was my first day back to school and we got a little pre cal homework. Sadly I don't remember how to do any of these kinds of things from algebra 2 so I need a little help on a couple problems. the first problem says to determine whether the equation represents y as a function of x and gives x(squared) + y(squared) = 4

    Any help on solving this problem would be appreciated, please show work and give an explanation so that I can proceed to do the rest on my own.

  • Which of these two for my first car?

    My parents and I have been looking at cars for a few months now and seeing as my mom wants my car to be within the past 2 years or so we have narrowed it down to a couple choices. First, a 2008 toyota corolla (purchased from private seller) with 15k miles, power options, ABS and automatic. The second option would be a 2007 pontiac g5 with all of the same options, however it has 30k miles. This would be purchased from a dealer, the toyota corolla is priced at 13,700 and the pontiac g5 is priced at 13,900. I am sure we could negotiate the g5 down some but i'm not sure about the corolla. Anyways, please post your thoughts on which of these two options would be better or if you have another suggestion please post it. Keep in mind that due to my mom there is no way I could get anything older than an 05 regardless of the deal... Also keep in mind that our budget is $14,000 or less

  • 16 year old male, first car and insurance?

    Alright, I turned 16 a few months ago and got my license the day after my birthday. The majority of cars that we have looked at are around $1500 a year for just liability. However, 3 cars that we have not checked with insurance have really caught my eye. The first being a mazda3 anywhere from an 04 to an 08, the second being a mazda6 with the same age, lastly a 04 mazda rx-8. I would be added to my parents progressive insurance and was curious how much the insurance would be on each of these cars? My family and I are planning on checking with an agent tomorrow but I wouldn't mind an educated guess. :) If it matters I have not had any accidents and my GPA is around a 3.25. Thanks for your help

  • 16 year old car help?

    Alright, I'm 16 years old and recently got my license. My parents have said that they are going to get me a car shortly. They have not told me a budget or really talked about what kind of car that I want/should get. Anyways I really like Mustangs and seem to find fairly new (less than 5 years old and 20,000 or less miles on it) mustangs on used car sites for around 15 grand. My parents spent around 13 grand on my brothers car which was new (don't remember what model the car is right now except that its a ford). They have also told me that they want to purchase me a used car due to the fact that insurance is cheaper. I was wondering how gas-efficient mustangs are, if this would be a good car for a beginning driver. And lastly what other recommendations for cars do you have, (please note I don't really want a truck due to the expense of gas).

    I'm a 16 year old male that is looking for my first job and will likely only hold it through the summer due to how busy I am during the school year. However, I have a few questions, can any employees tell me how much you get paid an hour, what kind of discounts if any that you receive and the likelihood of a 16 year old male with no previous work experience to get hired? Thanks

  • Recommended scope for the UTG m324 gen 3?

    Anyone want to reccomend a scope for this airsoft gun? I was leaning towards the 5th Gen 3-9X50 Mil-Dot Red/Green Illuminated Scope with 1 Inch Tube but was wondering, if this scope is too much overkill, how effective would a 4x32 scope at half the price be, i realize that the viewing area is quite a bit smaller in scopes like that, but would that size difference be worth the extra 30 bucks along with ridiculous zoom capabilities?
