Jim;
It's a tangent over a vanishingly small distance. Differential calculus---
ughh. Just measure it over the shortest distance you can manage.

I hope I'm not the only one who doesn't get this.
I thought an angle had degrees and a curve had a radius.
How do you figure out this angle curve stuff?
Tangent intersection over some distance?
Help!
