Let $C$ be a curve.
The turning angle is an intrinsic property of $C$ which measures of how sharply a curve changes direction.
The turning angle $\psi$ of $C$ at a point $P$ is defined by the differential equation:
- $\kappa = \dfrac {\d \psi} {\d s}$
where:
- $\kappa$ is the curvature at $P$
- $\dfrac {\d \psi} {\d s}$ is the derivative of $\psi$ with respect to the arc length $s$.
