moving in a circular motion

[kicknock]

suppose i have this circle:
drawoval (100,100,10,10,16)

and this dot:
drawdot(100,110,16)

how do i make the dot move around on the circumference of the circle?

you could abuse a recursive flood fill's code...

or you could just use the equation of a circle and solve for X and Y, write some code to keep track of negative and positive's as both are resulted.

If you have the hypotenuse and angle, which trigonometry function(s) would you use? I'll give you a hint, it is not tan.

in case you didnt get ericfourfours hint and know nothing about trig, the function to use would be cos(angle / hypotenuse)
