For a project I am currently working on I wanted to write code to plot items in a circle. I knew I needed to use trigonometry I just didnt know how to use it.. at all. I left school before (bad idea) I learnt trigonometry. I was also under the impression that it would be really difficult, however this is most certainly not the case.
I did a quick google search on trigonometry and action script, within 2 seconds I had found the perfect article; Trigonometry and Flash. This article told me everything I wanted to know, within an hour I had created the code in my application that I needed.
I reccomend this article to anyone, it’s awesome. Trigonometry and Flash
