Thanks for the feedback. I will update the explanation to make it clearer. In this case "f" stands for "function of." When I present this to my students I usually put it into words as follows:

Ts = f(Td, A); Target size in inches is a function of Target distance in yards and Angle in Minutes of Arc.

The rest of the material is the development of the equation for this function.

Also note that once you have the equation for that function, you can easily rearrange it to solve for any variable given the other two.

Thanks again for the feedback.
