    Thanks again for making me think.
    
    Given the square root of the x squared will be positive x.
    Given the absolute value of x will be positive x.
    Then x + (H-h) - x  = H-h
    
    Therefore, unless H-h changes, no matter what the input angle is, the
    initial equation stated will give the same value for any angle input.
    
    Beginning to wonder who actually took my SAT's 39 years ago ;-)
