Blood Trajectory Lab

We learned that by using the length (hypotenuse) and width (opposite) of a blood splatter you can use Sine to find the angle of the trajectory, giving you information about the height of the wound, and where the victim and maybe perpetrator were standing.  This lab will contribute to my knowledge for the mission, because if there was foul play and blood was splattered, it can give me info about the crime, such as said above.  This lab enriched my knowledge of sine and taught me that blood can spin and sometimes point to the wrong direction.
