Once you know the exact distance between the two landmarks, you make your self become the third vector to complete the triangle.
GPS uses your cell phone with the GPS system inside it, and uses the satellite as its two basic landmarks. Based on how far the signal is away from the satellite’s relative position in the sky, a computer can figure the location of the device giving off the signal to within a few...
