Math in the universe 2015-01-21
From GA:
I want to find out examples in universe for this equation:
sin(x)/cos(x)=1 or tan(x)=1. I know the mathematical answer of pie/4 or 45 degree angle.

What I need to know is to find examples of this. I found an example in construction, for example, which is the shape of attic in the house.

I want to find examples in universe like in solar system, in quasars or jets coming out of them, in galaxies, in stars, in black holes, etc

Do you know of any such examples?
