I'm sure others will correct me if I get this wrong...but I THINK the technical answer is to (when viewing the court from the leads position) envision a triangle with the baseline as the base and the other point being where the semi-cirle above the free-throw line and arc meet.
Had a veteran official tell me early on to use the 3-point arch as a guide...if it happens inside...go baseline. If it happens outside...go sideline.
Never had a complaint using that as a guide.
