The cache is NOT at the posted coordinates! However, it is a good place to park. To find the actual coordinates you must solve the following puzzle.

Puzzle:
In a 3D space there are 4 rays that all start at the origin and stretch out infinitely in different directions. These rays' directions are spaced out as much as possible from one another whilst the angle, ?, between each of them is the same. Imagine these rays are repelled from one another as much as possible, like multiple negative electric charges for example. Essentially, you are trying to find the maximum possible angle between the rays.
What is the angle (?) in degrees between the rays?
90º is not the answer. In a 2D space, the max angle between the rays would be 90º. However, this is not the max angle in a 3D space.
Once you find the angle, IN DEGREES, it should take the form:
___._ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
P1 P2 P3 P4 P5 P6 P7 P8 P9 P10 P11 P12
P# is the number of places AFTER the decimal point. The numbers before the decimal point are irrelevant to the coordinates. P1 is 1 place after the decimal point, P5 is 5 places after the decimal point, you get the idea.
A= P11
B= P3
C= P7
D= C - B
E= P8
F= P4

Note: the math here isn't too hard if you've passed High School math, it is more of a challenge to find where to start and where to go.
