    How to find two endpoints of a line?

    hi Tim.. Pardon me for my poor vocabulary... Here is the problem description in detail The line(connected line) drawn is assumed to be a boundary (assume it as ocean boundary or Great wall of china).. and the along-boundary length is the distance between point P and point a & point P and...

    How to find two endpoints of a line?

    Let me be more precise... Pls refer to the image diagram attached along this post.. You will find 5 points.. I need to calculate points a, b, c and d.. SO i thought i would begin by finding points a, d lengths (Pa) = (Pd), is not constant.. it may vary every time.. it is called "along boundary...

    How do i get the point of intersection of a line and a circle?

    You mean to say that, if, y = mx + b; and x^2 + y^2 = r^2 are two equations, then subst y=mx+b in eqt of circle..??then solve this equation and then get value for x.. den subst x in y=mx+b and get value of y.. am i right..?

    How do i get the point of intersection of a line and a circle?

    How do i get the point of intersection of a line and a circle.. I got lots of information on this topic, but my requirement is not matching.. I got a line whose one end point lies at the origin of the circle.. and other end lies somewhere outside the circle.. Now i need the point of...
