I think the option I chose is the only one that makes sense.

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

that's not correct @CrazyTurtle483 you have half of it right

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

keep in mind that you need to add on pi to make the angle do a half-turn

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well would it be option 4 then since it's 1 and -1?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yes it's D because (2n+1)pi = 2n*pi + pi the +pi at the end gets that half-turn

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so you would normally face the direction of -pi/6, but then do a half turn, and then walk backwards 1 unit

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok that makes more sense then

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I didn't know it would change like that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do you have time to check one more question?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

OpenStudy (anonymous):
