I have this triangle drawn (see fla)(Got it from this forum).  
Now I want a height being drawn as well.  
I want a height from point A beeing drawn to BC  
The angle at BC must be 90 degrees of course and the height drawn must alter when I drag the points B and C.  
Is this possible to do in flash, I have seen it done in JAVA
