1 in 60 rule has 90 miles to his next waypoint. He is thus two miles to the left of that and thus the waypoint is 4/3 of a degree (2 × 60/90) to the right, or approximately 1° right. The pilot then adds these two to get 5° and flies 5° right of t his previous heading. One can also use the 1 in 60 rule to approximate distance from a VOR, by flying 90 degrees to a radial and timing how long it takes to fly 10 degrees (the limit of the course deviation indicator). The time in seconds divided by 10
Heronian triangle product of the two shorter sides of the triangle, at least one of which must be even. An example of a Heronian triangle which is not right-angled is the isosceles triangle with sidelengths 5, 5, and 6, whose area is 12. This triangle is obtained by joining two copies of the right-angled triangle with sides 3, 4, and 5 along the sides of length 4. This approach works in general, as illustrated in the adjacent picture. One takes a Pythagorean triple ("a", "b", "c"), with "c" being largest, then another one ("a", "d", "e"), with "e" being largest, constructs the
