Small Angle ApproximationSmall Angle Approximation

For simplicity, we assume θ is very For simplicity, we assume θ is very smallsmall– Torque dot productTorque dot product– Tan θ = θTan θ = θ

This assumption confirmed by finding This assumption confirmed by finding the largest possible angle of setupthe largest possible angle of setup– θθmaxmax = 0.03884 = 2.226º = 0.03884 = 2.226º– ~0.05% difference between tan θ and θ~0.05% difference between tan θ and θ
