Still not clear. Changing from 26" to 10 feet? I don't think that matters. And, you also don't state if you are solving the straight line "to" C or "through" C from A to B. Otherwise, sounds like my previous answer would stand.
Assumptions:
A to B are a straight line (doesn't matter how far apart)
C is somewhere in space (no statement that it resides in the same straight AB line, only in a fixed point, which could be miles away!)
