okay this is what I can get one my own
$$ \left( \sum (L_n cos(\theta_n - \theta_t)) \right)^2 = \left( \sum (L_n sin (\theta_n)) \right)^2 + \left( \sum (L_n cos(\theta_n)) \right)^2 $$
$$ \left( \sum (L_n cos(\theta_n - \theta_t)) \right)^2 / \left( \sum (L_n) \right)^2 = \left( \left( \sum...
my angle formula only works if every instance of ##L_n## is the same, because the longer ##L_n## is the more disproportionately it's pairing ##\theta_n## matters so yes my angle forumla is not finished, it can't be used outside of very specific situations, I wish to expand it's reach
my final angle forumla is incomplete I know that, I'm trying to find the missing piece/s for it
but lets have a look for the magnitude
so cos(353-54.28)⋅0.672+cos(128-54.28)⋅0.614=0.495
no you haven't found a failure state for my magnitude, I suspect you used the incomplete angle forumla to...
for those that enjoy the code version here we go
these two are mine:
$$ \sum (L_n cos(\theta_n - \theta_t)) = L_t $$
$$ \sum (\theta_n \frac{L_n}{\sum L_n}) = \theta_t $$
this one is incomplete
these two are the long way around
$$ \tan^{-1} (\frac {\sum (L_n sin(\theta_n)) }{\sum (L_n...
yes these two methods are the long way round I described, I have evidence that there is a faster way to calculate both of these in the two other formulas
okay here's an example, you wouldn't find this anywhere but it should help explain what the hell I'm on about

Vector sums, I need to calculate if a ciduit is in phase or not most commonly this boils down to a RLC circuit, but you can also have several circuits adding to together
