Camber by slotting the struts

[Derrick Stikeleather]

SAS (side, angle, side.  Angle between the two sides)  You need to use the
formula for the law of cosines.

c^2=a^2+b^2-2ab*COS(angle opposite c)
b^2=a^2+c^2-2ac*COS(angle opposite b)
a^2=b^2+c^2-2bc*COS(angle opposite a)

for triangle with sides a,b, and c.

This is if I understand the triangle you are trying to solve, of course.
