document.write( "You start at about the point 1 on the x-axis.  Then you swing around\r\n" );
document.write( "420° clockwise as indicated by the blue curved line.  420° is more\r\n" );
document.write( "than 360° so it's more than one swing around, for it swings around\r\n" );
document.write( "one whole turn and ends up in the fourth quadrant 60° below the x-axis\r\n" );
document.write( "because 420°-360°=60°\r\n" );
