    1313 If the normals ''do'' intersect, and {{{IP}}} is ''neither in'' equatorial plane ''nor on'' polar axis, all three arcs will be equal ''and'' be the true shortest arc between the points. The same applies if {{{IP}}} lies ''uncentered'' in equatorial plane, but at least one of the normals lies not.
