More Maths

"Here is a picture to show how knowledge of geometry can be used to
enhance a person's performance in sport.

On a rugby field, when the halfback passes to the centre (red arrow)
and the centre gets tackled (yellow arrow), the flanker who has run
from in front of the halfback runs to the tackle (green arrow).   It
creates a triangle.  For the flanker, following the green arrow is
faster than following the red and yellow arrows.
