My question was, what are the negative numbers relative to? Does it mean
that your Ho's are smaller than your Hc's, (Ho < than Hc, plot away from
body). Or if subtracting Ho FROM Hc, that the Ho's are larger than the
Hc's?
Example:
30d (Ho) - 29d (Hc) = +1d
29d (Hc) - 30d (Ho) = -1d
So without some reference or "standard," it was difficult for me to
determine fit the observed angles were smaller or larger than the calculated
angle.
Sorry for the confusion,
Bill
