How to Evaluate Turn Angle given Eccentricity?

Turn Angle given Eccentricity evaluator uses Turn Angle = 2*asin(1/Eccentricity of Hyperbolic Orbit) to evaluate the Turn Angle, The Turn Angle given Eccentricity formula is defined as angular change in the direction of motion as the object travels along its hyperbolic path. The formula allows for the calculation of this turn angle based on the eccentricity of the hyperbolic orbit, which characterizes the shape and degree of elongation of the path. Turn Angle is denoted by δ symbol.
