With all in mind we know about circular segment. Is it possible to calculate "width" of the circular segment when rotated and still seen from frontal view? I know the chord (C), angle, height and radius and would like to calculate L as can be seen in image here. Notice the start (left side) of the frontal view width starts at the edge of the circular segment. Could not come up with an aproach that would allow me to calculate the length of the "width" (L) of the segment. Is it even possible to calculate?



What I have tried is to somehow fit two triangles (dotted green and black). And that is when it ends before it starts. Because there is too many unknown. I have not come up with another feasible solution.
