Hi All, I will try and explain the best I can but it's hard without being able to provide a picture.
Imagine I have a 'V' transposed on it's side '<' and the v is not to a sharp point but has a radius, I need to calculate the intersection of the radius on the angle. in both planes.
I'll always know the center of the rad, i'll know the start diameter of the angle, and of course i'll know the Angle.
Does this make sense ?

example:
V with a rad of 0.015" angle of 80º inclusive Low starting point of 2.973" will give me an intersection of 3.044" and 0.0426"
High starting point of 3.162" will give me an intersection of 3.090" and 0.0426"
Center of the Rad is 3.067"

I really hope you understand what I am looking for.

Cheers :o)

You can teach Excel a new custom list. Type the list in cells, File, Options, Advanced, Edit Custom Lists, Import, OK
Incase anyone asks why this is posted in an excel forum, I currently have to draw the part shape in SolidWorks to get the intersection points, I am looking to create a excel sheet in which a user will be able to enter the Rad Center, Starting points, Angle and radius size and get the results they need.

Any Help !!!?
