    There were a couple of places where you lost me temporarily. (I have the same problem - either I show too many steps or not enough). But it does work out. Congratulations!

    I suspected that if there was an answer a 45-45-90 or 30-60-90 triangle would be involved somewhere, but that's just a little too obscure !   :)
