stem 1: Size: ± 6° x 90mm (w/ stack height of 35mm)
stem 2: Size: ± 10° x 90mm (w/ stack height of 36mm)

Does the stack height even make a difference in the equation?

Thanks for any incite.
i want to help, but i am not sure what you are asking?

can't you use math or something? like Pythagorean theorem?

or SOH CAH TOA
