I have a set of unit vectors, but don't know their coordinates, or even
the dimension of the space they span. I'm given the angle between each
pair of vectors in units of some unknown "unit angle". I'd like to find
the smallest dimension into which the set fits, as well as the range of
values the "unit angle" is restricted to. Do I need anything more than
linear algebra to solve this?
