Three-point contact refers to moving on a surface and to how many of your limbs are reliably attached to a surface feature. For example, both hands on a rail and a foot on the step, or both feet on step(s) and a hand on the stairrail. Etc. In this case, three-point contact for stairs means holding both stairrails one with each hand and using one foot when stepping up/down the stairs. From a design point of view, the stair designer must design a handrail which is graspable (1-5/8" dia.) and a stair which is walkable preferably 7" riser and 11" tread. This will make three-point-control possible and achievable.

How do you find center of a circle given 3 points on the circle?
You have points A, B, and C. Using a compass and straight edge, find a perpendicular bisector of AB (that is, a line that is perpendicular to AB and intersects AB at the midpoint of AB. Next, find a perpendicular bisector of BC. The two lines you found will meet at the center of the circle.
What is a true bearing?
A true bearing is a type of bearing that indicates the direction of one point relative to another point on the Earth's surface, measured using true north as a reference point. It is expressed as an angle, measured in degrees, between a fixed reference direction (such as true north) and the direction of the point being observed. True bearings are important for navigation, surveying, and other applications that require accurate direction-finding. They differ from magnetic bearings, which are measured relative to the Earth's magnetic field, and are subject to variation depending on the location and time. True bearings are more reliable and consistent, as they are based on the Earth's axis of rotation and do not change over time or location.
From a point on the ground 24 feet from the base of a tree the angle of elevation of the top of the tree is 35 degrees what is the height of the tree?
Using the expression for tangent: tan(angle)=opposite/adjacent, and x to denote the height of the tree, we have tan(35)=x/24 So x=24*tan(35) = 24*0.4738 = 11.37 So the tree is 11.37 feet tall
