The arc BC subtends an angle of magnitude a at the centre and therefore OB → · OC → = cos a. Introduce a Cartesian basis with OA → along the z-axis and OB → in the xz-plane making an angle c with the z-axis. The vector OC → projects to ON in the xy-plane and the angle between ON and the x-axis is A. Therefore, the three vectors have ...
