Abstract

The paper presents the results of a computational experiment studying the dependence of angles θ₁ and θ₂ on the parameters of length (L) and height (h). The experiment was performed for values of λ = L/h in the range 6 – 21.64. The data were obtained using the ATAN2 functions in Excel, taking into account trigonometric transformations. The results demonstrate the nonlinear dynamics of the angles with a change in λ, which indicates the critical influence of the ratio of geometric parameters.It all started with a routine job in Microsoft Excel. I built ellipses using classical formulas, checking geometric models.But when I entered the data for the parameter L (half-axis length) and angle θ, the calculation column returned something inexplicable:At L=3.5, the angle was stable at 340.5°.
