trig. equations needed

[Templarian]

I know some basic trig. but how do i find an angle from an anchor point and a mving point? To help you off ...

adjecent = _root.anchor._x-_root._xmouse;
opposite = _root.anchor._y-_root._ymouse;
hypotenuse = ((adjacent ^ 2)+(opposite ^ 2)) ^ 0.5;

If anyone knows thx in advance.

use Math.atan2(opposite, adjacent); That will give you an angle in radians. Multiply it by 180/Math.PI to get degrees.

thx I was thinking really hard and figured out the atan 2 part and was thinking i need to have that 180/pi part somewhere thx again
