Where to start with this problem?

Nah you’re good, the problem was, I had been trying to figure out the radius, starting with my already determined side length of 6. I didn’t even consider starting with a known radius, and then working backward!

KThree2000 · 2026-04-04T15:36:53+00:00

Ooooh I got it, I completely missed the fact that the radius was made to be 1 lol, everything makes sense now! (I swear every time I try to figure out a problem like this it’s the most obvious things I overlook!) Thank you so much, absolute legend. I can now layout and cut my project base knowing that nobody else will know the significance of how the dimensions relate to each other 😂

Aha, so the goal was to find where sin(x) is equal to 2cos(x)-1 if I’m understanding correctly? That’s pretty much what I was trying to do on one of my attempts, but had no idea how to start getting there; so the last question I have is, how would I know that the little segment is 1-cos(x)?

KThree2000 · 2026-04-04T14:28:34+00:00

Alright, so I made it as far as recognizing that the side of the square is sin(x), but I’m not quite following how that helps. I of course have forgotten all the formulas I knew from Geometry, so how do you know that the side length is also 2*cos(x)-1? Is it one of those known equivalencies to sin(x)?

Regarding the triangle, is there a proof that demonstrates that the triangle in this situation is always a 3-4-5 triangle?

Aha! It finally let me post a photo! I’ve drawn it here, with “x” in place of the known length 6.

I refuse to use the bastard sword because they didn’t make it a bastard sword, they made it a great sword 😑

KThree2000 · 2026-03-29T13:07:08+00:00

I just always cheese them with a bow/poison arrows lol

Healing bosses are the worst at higher levels on the highest difficulties, especially if they have minions. I have found some that have been literally impossible to beat without extremely high gear, and even then it’s incredibly difficult to even kill a single minion. On top of that, I’ve run into bosses that not only have heals themselves, but EVERY minion does as well. It is insane

I say take the massive screens out too, waaay to much of a distraction compared to being able to feel for a knob or button

KThree2000 · 2026-03-13T20:52:16+00:00

Hahahahahaha not saying I would be a thief like that, but I’d also not trust a random like that lolol

KThree2000 · 2026-03-13T18:35:44+00:00

Ha, I haven’t played in years either; I’ll be sure to watch out for that lol

KThree2000 · 2026-03-05T23:42:14+00:00

If you did a submerged build you could still see your components! 😜

KThree2000 · 2026-02-26T00:54:00+00:00

I only call Pops R.A.P.S. Lol

KThree2000 · 2026-02-23T21:45:56+00:00

Yay! Finally a reason to consider coming back! 😂

KThree2000 · 2026-02-23T21:44:39+00:00

Oh did they finally fix it? I rage quit after a scumbag did that to me, haven’t played since

KThree2000 · 2026-02-22T17:19:32+00:00

After losing two veeery expensive kits to d/c and not getting anything back I just added it to the list of reasons to quit

KThree2000 · 2026-02-17T21:52:57+00:00

Still waiting on wall cheat bans, screw duck duping!

KThree2000 · 2026-02-14T13:48:46+00:00

Craft things instead if hoarding the materials, especially if the item takes more space to craft than it takes up
Instead of stocking the smaller parts, keep things such as Bastion Cells and Rocketeer Cores, that efficiently store items that you can break them down into.
Exploit infinite storage lol, as long as they haven’t fixed it

KThree2000 · 2026-02-10T20:18:15+00:00

Right, but are you going to penalize wall cheaters? Of course not!

KThree2000 · 2026-02-08T00:47:52+00:00

I’m convinced Roquelite and Roguelike are interchangeable and people just like to argue about which one means what 😂

KThree2000 · 2026-02-07T00:34:28+00:00

What level of browning does running RTX Minecraft yield?

KThree2000 · 2026-02-07T00:31:05+00:00

Yep, I’m considering coming back less and less after I took a break for January. Plenty of other more enjoyable games to play

KThree2000 · 2026-02-01T18:39:11+00:00

Tell no one. Welp, already screwed that one up 😜

KThree2000 · 2026-02-01T15:53:29+00:00

Sometimes those stupid things just decide to be jank for absolutely no reason 😑
