How is it that a tetrahedron inscribed in a sphere touches at 19.5 deg?
A tetrahedron is composed of equilateral traingles which means each of the three angles is exactly 60 deg (666 and half of 360) so that when inscribed in a sphere (which looks like the 2d hexagram or seal of solomon), the points meet at 60 deg exactly, not 19.5.
What am I missing?

is it a reference to latitude.. ive not had time to look to far into the math of it all
