Tangents along a straight line

24 Views Asked by At

I was looking to solve this geometrical problem. I have a line which is subdivided so that the when it is intersected it creates tangents of equal lengths that are stacked upon each other.

I'm looking to find a way to calculate the length of tangents (in red) that would divide x number of times for a length of line (blue) - this image should explain it better.

Thanks!
