                  Quick Triangle Solution v2.1
                       March 30, 1997
                          GX\G\SX\S


This is an updated version of QTS.  The following has 
been changed.

The original QTS returned results in a side, adjacent 
angle format.  QTSV2.1 returns all answers in opposite 
angle format, as per:  A/Sin(a)=B/Sin(b) ect...
where Side A is opposite angle(a).

The results are returned in a nested list.  Under 
EQSTKV9.0, FIX = 2, this displays a really good looking 
table.  

eg:  30 1 60 -> ASA =>

{ { 0.5   30 }
  { 1     90 }
  { 0.866 60 } }

A new function ASA have been added.  I know this could've
easily been determined from a SAA but I've added it for 
completeness.



Thanks to:
Othniel Rawlins for QTS.

    DISCLAMER:  Backup your calc before running this program. it
                works fine on my GX version R
    


    This program solves unknown angles and sides of oblique or right 
    angle triangles. I am a machinist and they are times when I
    need to quickly compute sides and angles of a triangle for hole 
    locations or machining complex geometrical parts. Time is money
    in a machine shop and this program saves me time.
     
     
     
    INSTALLATION
    You can install this program two ways.

    1. Download QTS.LIB and install it in your calc

    2. Download QTS.S to your calc. QTS.S is a JAZZv4.0 makerom source 
       file which uses Mika Heiskanen compression program called  
       BZ. You will need to get BZ12 uncompress QTS.S When  
       QTS.S is uncompress, you can use JAZZ [ASS] key to convert 
       QTS.S to a library.

   *   Read your manual for more info on installing libraries

      Here is the location where you can get BZ & JAZZ4.0   

   hpcvbbs.external.hp.com
   /dist/hp48g/programming/asm/jazzv40.zip 
   /dist/hp48g/programming/asm/jazzv40.light.zip 
   /dist/hp48/utils/compress/bz12.zip

      
      


    INPUTS  
    QTS requires three un-known about a triangle. They should be entered
    in order, in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction. For example,
    if I had a case SSA I would enter the value of Side1 net to side1
    is side2 and next to side2 is Angle3. It fairly simple.
    Here is a stack diagram to simplify things even more. 

    SSA -->  Side1      level3
             Side2      level2
             Angle1     level1

    SAS -->  Side1      level3
             Angle1     level2
             Side2      level1

    SSS -->  Side1      level3
             Side2      level2
             Side3      level1

    SAA -->  Side1      level3
             Angle1     level2
             Angle2     level1


inputs & outputs for angles are in decimal format not HMS 

QTSv1.1 was written & compiled with Jazzv4.0

THANKS TO:
Jacklevy@aol.com for uploading to FTPsite for me.
Mika Heiskanen & Jan Brittenson for the wonderful program JAZZv4.0 
Mika Heiskanen -- For BZv12 which is the best compression program
                  you can get for the 48

     
    Enjoy...........
