Question

In the picture below you can see two methods a wind direction is measured. The first method (method A) designates the direction of a wind by specifying the angle at which it blows measured anticlockwise from the East. In contrast, the second method (method B) indicates the angle from which the wind is blowing, measured clockwise from the North. Both methods utilise values within the range of 0° to 360°. i) Derive a piecewise formula expressing thitaA in terms of thita_pi - ii) Draw a graph depicting the angle thitaA  as a function of the angle thita/bar (B).
