1307449	2012-10-18 06:26:00	calculate the shortest distance between this 5 cities and explain the method you used. Reykjavik, Tokyo, Kingston(Jamaica), Singapore and Vancouver. I know this isnt the place for this but i dont know what else to do.	mohadino (14141)
1307450	2012-10-18 06:28:00	Is this actual distance? I don't see how you can have a method other than "google it" if no information about the locations of the cities is provided.	icow (15313)
1307451	2012-10-18 06:30:00	we are supposed to find the latitudes and longitudes and calculate from that. I just dont know where to begin	mohadino (14141)
1307452	2012-10-18 06:31:00	Shortest distance is 0. Used hyperjump to warp space-time. Rolled natural 20, success!	inphinity (7274)
1307453	2012-10-18 06:33:00	Would this website help: www.chemical-ecology.net	Jen (38)

1307456	2012-10-18 06:36:00	The key words to this problem are 'great circle distances between cities' www.google.co.nz 314.5905.2-22j1.23.0.les%3B..0.0...1c.1.sNkI-kjshMM&pbx=1&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_qf.&fp=2d17bff99907beac&bpcl=35440803&biw=1178&bih=781 This should start you off on the right track.

1307458	2012-10-18 06:51:00	But that is cheating :) I'd have thought this was supposed to be a problem in spherical trigonometry :clap	Terry Porritt (14)
