Maybe you could have it work out how many miles another members is from you?

[chunkielad]

I can't get into the map - it's grey and not an active hyperlink.

The map up the top is not live yet, that's why it's grey.

Anybody remember their A level maths? Formula for distance between two vectors on a 2d grid? Get me that and I'll try to do it.

My head hurts

Can you not make it use The AA Route Planner or one of the route planners online? Because doing it as a vector will only give the straghtline distance etc, not the actual distance

[Korn]

That's so much more complicated

Good idea though, might try it.

Pythagoras

X^2+y^2=z^2

And I could swear we touched on it in ks3 .

So you need to square the difference between the x coordinates and square the difference between the y coordinates. Add the two results together then find the square root of that, which will be the straight line distance.

Arghhhh pythagoras

Next you'll be wanting to know the cosine and sin rules

[Susi]

I swear I did pythagoras in G.C.S.E. maths. In fact I remember doing it in Year 9 when I changed over from the Spanish bilingual school to a tatty catholic school.

Bah, it's meant to be Silly old Hilter, couldn't advance his troops over Africa

And there was some even gayer ones at A-Level P2/P3, but the details of them have long been forgotten

[Susi]

I always knew it as SOH CAH TOA and tried to say it as a chinese person would, it was the only way I could get round it.

This might be a stupid question, as everybody else seems to have figured it out, but how do I get a map to show in my profile?

I tried the top link but it doesn't work.
