Following the creation of a sort of aviary enclosure for the dovecote, and the subsequent danger of cats managing to get over the top, plans for a higher and improved part on top were made. Only they couldn’t work out what angle the frame uprights for the top section would lean at. I was posed the trigonometric puzzle and instead of trying to remember GCSE maths I simply went back to my MSN convo which happened to contain two maths students, one attending UCL and the other Bath University.

Needless to say I got a quick and easy answer by simply drawing a triangle and labelling some lengths using the Handwriting Tool usually reserved for drawing moronic pictures. But afterwards a thought occured to me that maybe, like the really boring app I made for AI and matrices and vectors I could make one for working out any angle or length of a triangle if you provide some others.

So there we are, a flash challenge to complete before I start a placement. http://www.clarku.edu/~djoyce/trig/oblique.html

About Me

I am a web designer/digital artist currently studying BSc Digital Art and Technology in Plymouth University. I have returned for my fourth and final year of the course following my year in an industrial placement with the web design company Neovirtua and my own freelance work.

So far I have developed a wide range of skills, from producing videos using 3D software to gaining an aptitude for learning numerous programming languages. This is all on top of my original enthusiasm for art and HTML.

Puzzle Flash

Based on a couple of puzzles I received a long time ago, this flash generates a random puzzle and then jumbles the pieces up for the player to solve.

Puzzle Flash game mini screenshot The flash actionscript behind this is flexible enough to allow for any size puzzle to be created and jumbled as many times as I like. In addition to this, the difficulty of rotating pieces is also a feature.
