I thought I remembered my algebra from a half century ago. I don't. :-(
Is it possible to solve the equation below for a? <--- CORRECTION: initial post said "c" here. That was a mistake. I meant "a"
a^2 + (1.3a)^2 = c^2
Why? Because I'm trying to constrain (crop) an image to have a certain number of pixels. 1.3 is the image's aspect ratio. So the Pythagorean b is equal to 1.3a
So the above is the Pythagorean formula:
Width^2 * (1.3 * Width)^2 = Total_Pixels^2
TIA
