I belive the point of it wasn't speed but accuracy. If you dont have to rely on a graphical solution you can potentially get greater accuracy.

@geezerjo09: If you want do discuss:

Wouldn't it be easier to skip the calculation of the uneccessary part of the second triangle. (ie the 64degree angle on your image) and instead calculate the targets traveled distance with 8.2/sin(26)?
