sounds great, but back to math class with you...

A = 7 blocks west, B = 3 blocks north, C = distance to campus
A squared + B squared = C squared
49+9 = C Squared
square root of 58 = C
C = 7.6 and a bit
but really, C = 10, unless you have a jet pack or helicopter, since you won't be going diagonally.

Enjoy the new apartment!
And please tolerate my being a smart alec...

Holy shit. That's why I'm a sports management major. I can't even do simple algebra anymore.
A squared + B squared = C squared....oh right right.....
