Note
All calculation are performed in 2D. Model is projected on table facet plane

1.1 Draw line a through star facet edge belongs to table facet. Line will separate plane into half-planes β and δ:

In projection on XY plane, for each Star facet:

  • Find the most distant point belong to the Start facet from line between Star and Table facets. Call it "A".
  • Find the most distant point from this line on the girdle (in the same half-plane). Call it "B"
  • StarUpperRatio is A\B.
