    Pictures of charts don't allow us to see what you are doing in the spreadsheet, s it is difficult to see what you are doing wrong.

    It looks like a basic rotation problem. It's too bad your math skills are not the greatest, because this looks to be a simple matrix multiplication. See wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotati...Two_dimensions Remember that Excel has the MMULT() function for matrix multiplications: https://support.office.com/en-us/art...3-e4ad3c7245eb
    Also remember that, like almost all other programming languages, Excel's trig functions work with angles in radians.

    Re: Calculation Help

    Your post does not comply with Rule 1 of our Forum RULES. Your post title should accurately and concisely describe your problem, not your anticipated solution.

    Use terms appropriate to a Google search. Poor thread titles, like Please Help, Urgent, Need Help, Formula Problem, Code Problem, and Need Advice will be addressed according to the OP's experience in the forum: If you have less than 10 posts, expect (and respond to) a request to change your thread title. If you have 10 or more posts, expect your post to be locked, so you can start a new thread with an appropriate title.

    To change a Title go to your first post, click EDIT then Go Advanced and change your title, if 2 days have passed ask a moderator to do it for you.

    (This thread should receive no further responses until this moderation request is fulfilled, as per Forum Rule 7)
