I understand it better now. Thanks. I see that vector [C] is a hypotenuse type angle (forgive my serious lack of physics jargon) so I can look at the intersection and see that the angle is 45 degrees and use sine and cosine to find Cx and Cy. I just thought there was a simpler way to do it. Like...
