Is that mathematically possible? 8O

I'll try it out! Thanks very much =D

Update: This doesn't seem to work :\

Lemme ask the question different.

|\
|a\
|``\
|```\ b
|````\
|`````\
-----------
c

How do I find the length of side c assuming I know angle a and side b and that it is a right triangle?
