Determine the probability that the triangle is acute. 2007-04-10
From Greg:
Points A1, A2, . . ., AN are equally spaced around the circumference of a circle and N >=3. Three of these points are selected at random and a triangle is formed using these points as its vertices. If N = 2k for some positive integer k >= 2, determine the probability that the triangle is acute.

Third side of Acute Triangle 2001-11-09
From Don:
I gave this problem to my children, 9th and 12th grade and they are not(me too!) sure of the answer. I am trying to determine the length of the third side of an acute triangle. I know two of the lengths but I do not know the angles. Is there a proper formula to use to find the length of the third side? Thank you.
