In Section 11.24 of the Celestial Navigation book, on page 174, you say that a 120 degree spread between the stars ensures that (with a fixed error) the correct position is in the center of the equilateral triangle, but that this is not true if the stars are 60 degrees apart. I am having great difficulty in understanding why that is; can you explain the difference?
