I'm unsure between B and D

ok so you did the math just fine
at this point, there's no math--just look at it visually
Is this right tho? I'm unsure since I got similar question wrong
if you're thinking D, you're right
For this right?
26.57 degrees would be this
Ohhh so I add 180? What is the rule regarding adding 180?
I've looked at many videos about it; but they never once covered it
Are these all correct by any chance?
so generally, arctan can only tell you an angle between -90 degrees and 90 degrees
but sometimes you're working with an angle that isn't in that range
How can you tell?
I'd say very generally, you should add 180 degrees if the vector is pointing overall to the "left"
Thanks that really helps tbh
