PL E
Now you can work out the size of the angle that the Sprite needs to turn in order to follow the line from beginning to end.
SA M
The Sprite moves forward 100. It then reaches a bend. It needs to turn to continue following the line.
You can draw a line as though the Sprite was going to continue straight ahead. You can call this the ‘projected line’. Will the Sprite need to turn left or right? You can measure the angle between the pretend line and where it needs to turn to. This is the amount of turn (angle) that the Sprite would need to make.
