While higher-level math will be required, don't let this discourage you...
it would be a fun way to learn the math (after all, who cares about a train
leaving Chicago just as a train leaves New York?).  A complete discussion
(or tutorial) of the math involved in collision detection would take up too
much room here, but a good library (university library) will have everything
you need to get started.  Good luck and keep us posted.
