Abstract
It is shown that an important distinction can be made between determinacy of common-factors and determinacy of unique-factors and that determinacy can be used as a criterion to establish a lower bound for the ratio of number of variables to number of factors necessary if specified levels of common- and unique-factor determinacy are to be attained.

The first deduction is the matrix of cosines between maximally distinct factor axes which represent the same factor solution which is used to investigate the indeterminancy of factor extensions.
