What do you mean by "gaussian"? Is that one of my gaussian random numbers? I assume sin(theta) is measure of area Area = ∫2π0∫σ0sin(θ) Z1dθd∅ (thanks for your reply)

I am not sure if I have the title right, but here is my problem: I have a ray which 'should be' shot vertically from a point p, but depending on the situation it can: 1) either be shot in any direction in the hemisphere above p 2) shot with an angle of no more than σ off the vertical 3) shot...

Thanks Oli, This is what I am given: The (x,y,z) coordinates of each corner of the box and the normal n of the plane... I think you might be right, somewhere in the projection steps is the key but I coan't quite crack it. This is how I project: The equation of the plane: (p-a)°n=0...

I have a group of 8 3-D points which all sit on an arbitrary plane (The points were generated by projecting the corners of a axis aligned cube, box, onto the plane) I wish to group all the points in a rectangle with the smallest surface area - so a tight fit rectangle. What I am doing at...
