Geocache Description:


The cache is not located at the above coordinates, it is point A. This is an oblique triangle problem.
Point A = N34 39.625 W118 05.681
Point B = N34 39.625 W118 05.855
Point C is the cache and lies to the south of the line AB. Angle A = 24º, Angle B = 17º. That means angle C is, you guessed it, obtuse. The law of sines should be helpful. At the cache one minute of Latitude equals 6076 feet and one minute of Longitude equals 4997 feet. Good luck.
