Great PHP – have I found a bug?
Have a problem with a cog of equilateral triangle, so, tried with weights of 1 on each corner, using the base as the x axis & side length of 1 ie weight=1,1,1 x=0,0.5,1 y=0,0.866,0 & the result is 2,289. Where am I going wrong shouldn’t it be 0.5,0.289. When I scale the figures x=0,500,1000 y=0,866,0 the result is correct 500,289?

1. 3 kg @ 9.5 meters
2. 2 kg @ 6.4 meters
3. 2.5 kg @ the origin
4. 4 kg @ -.5 meters
