Old School

Sure looks like 0.500" in the X direction to me. No trig tables handy, but y=0.375+0.5*sin(0.5/0.625)?

This is a little more challenging than that.
I would not insult you guys with a simple problem

You might be old school if you ever installed a truck transmission with an inner tube and a piece of plywood.

You know you are old school if you know how to use one of these.

I have one mounted on my toolbox.

Vulcan Minigun Pistol?

Just a young man with a dream

Can i use my slide rule?

That would be great, I never used one.

.....if you know how to use a transistor radio tuned between stations to set the timing on your motorcycle.

.....or if you remember the status that came with a 6 or 9 transistor radio vs a 3 transistor radio.

Well, if you find the angle at 0,0 in the right triangle (1.0 long, .375 high) then you should have the three sides of the oblique triangle (hyp of earlier tri, [.625/2]+ .625, .625) and so you can get the angle of it at the 0,0 point added to the first tri totaled will give you the angle which with the side ([.625/2]+ .625) you can derive the length of the side in X.

Maybe..

I could lay it out in qcad or define the geometry in apt360, or do the math but I don't know where I left my log tables (logarithm table).

Yes Sir, your almost home

I'll leave it for the youngsters to figure out, I am up to my trig tables in trying to configure a iptables/shorewall firewall computer before the hard drive in the old on pukes.....

And I thought you were the youngster
