Sooner or later, all math leads to Calculus, no matter how much we would like to beleive that isn't true. Here's our Calc section... Brush up on your college math, pull out a your dusty textbook and get comfy.
A farmer wants to catch a pig which is 100 meters away from him. They start running at the same time. The pig runs straight ahead, initially perpendicular to the line farmer-pig, at constant speed. The farmer always runs in the direction where he sees the pig (also at constant speed).

If the ratio of the speeds is 3:1 (farmer:pig), how far would the pig have traveled till the farmer caught it?
