Here's a complex (or simple one to some) query...
You have 2 points in a 3D space.
Point A is located at XYZ (-10, -7, 4)
Point B is located at XYZ (-10. -4, 2)
Distance between points is worked out by SQRT((Xa*Xb) + (Ya*Yb) + (Za*Zb)) which works out at 11.66
What I want to do now is work out the new position of Point B if its rotated around Point A by:
X - 30deg
Y - 20deg
Z - 40deg
Hope that makes sense...

;D if only :'(
All I need is the formula to work this out... not the actual result...
Google returns bugger all which is useful...

Can you not simply do vector sums using the initial distance between A and B and each angle in turn?
