By AA (angle-angle). They have a right angle and angle B in common.
Edit: angle B, not A. Fixed.

What about me? Or are similar triangles too much? :P

Oh. That would explain the misunderstandings :P
If you'll tell me how much you know (grammar, mainly), then I can try to restrict my speech.
For reference, I was asking what book you were learning from.

It doesn't have to be symmetric, it just has to be a right triangle, AFAICT, which is the fact that my similar-triangles solution relies upon.

quo libro ad latinam discendam uteris?

What do you need TI-Connect for? I meant using WabbitEmu, since getting a screenshot from a real calc via TI-Connect doesn't, can't capture the current z-address. ;)

Nice, I like the same-area solution :D
Another way is this: (using the labels in Builder's picture)
ΔABC and ΔDBA are similar triangles, so AC/AD=BC/AB.
So AD=AC*AB/BC=40*30/50=24, as the others got. :)

Interesting (and nice bump, too). Screenshot? I tried to reproduce it in 2.53MP in Wabbit, but I couldn't.

Yes you can ;D You need an adapter (2.5->3.5mm) because normal headphones are too large. There are various programs, but I can't remember them off the top of my head :(
Edit: ninja'd twice thrice

That only makes the app smaller; it'll still require as much RAM. As an analogy, you could remove the menus in, say, Crysis, but it wouldn't make the game itself any less taxing on your computer.

It doesn't even have to be between websites... It can be between people, too.
With people, as with sites, be kind, empathetic, and understanding. Be careful with what you say, and drop it immediately if the other person isn't responding positively.
If only these problems would come to an end... :/

DJ, apparently they tested his DNA against his sister's (who is also dead) and they seemed to be siblings, so presumably it's the man himself.
