I'll have to discuss this with my teachers at drving school, maybe they'll train us in geometry too afterwards.
I see just one problem: Does this approach incorporate tolerances too? Having to touch the car behind you may not be appreciated.
In Paris it's common to nestle mostly into the space, gently (and sometimes not so gently) nudging the bumpers of the cars in front and back to widen the space.
When parking in Paris, leave your handbrake off and the car out of gear to avoid damage.
This only tells you the minimum space required to park your given car behind a car of a given width. The actual doing is left as an exercise to the reader.
