I have a geometry problem for which I have the answer but not the solution. (Does that even make sense?)

Would anyone like to tackle it?

I would prefer not to publish it here because it will be published elsewhere in the future.

I can't send it to too many people, but if I don't get a solution I will update my request.

Thanks.

Sounds like a case of: a^2 + b^2 = c^2

Then you have the quadratic equation.

How many can derive it from scatch?

Oh, goody.

Finally some one to whom I can sell my left handed monkey wrench, my pipe stretcher and my sky hook.;-)

Although now there is a type of man lift called a sky hook.:good:

I don't know if it's too late, but I enjoy geometry, if you don't mind sending me a copy of it to ta26280@gmail.com . I'm not a geometry "genius" though.
