Holy Trig BATMAN!!!!

 

This one took me back.....SOH-CAH-TOA is all I have to say!!!

 

Really fun to dust off that high school math. 

 

The non spatial option took me a lot of trial and error to get the points right. Also encountered a slight deviation from the final angle, (hundreths of a %) may be due to some rounding error because I broke my math into separate steps.

 

This is the fist time I used spatial functions.  Really powerful!!!

 

Loved this challenge.  I work for a telecom and this exercise hits close to the heart!!!
