I understand that plop gives the dimensions of the triangles ( 6 in this case) and pivot bars, but its all xy co-ordinates. i dont know where 0,0 is.

eg. the triangle it generated has 3 points.

the pivot bar

It also gives me various other measurements

and the positions of the triangles relative to the mirror

in the triangle each point has an xy co-ordinate, but i dont know how to work out the length of each side or angle between each side from this data.
likewise for the collomation bolt positions, i cannot work this out from the information provided. im sure its possible, but i cannot do it, and this is where i need help, to explain how to work out dimensions from the data given.

Thanks all
