Given the graph, how can you throw somebody at 450 degrees or 630 degrees given that both uke and nage approach infinite contraction or de-contraction at 270 degrees?

Given the graph, where are the sine and cosine waves? Sine and cosine plots are smooth and continuous. Both lines that are plotted have a discontinuity at t=270.
Dear Mark,
Physics etc was never my strong point but geometry states that 360degrees is a circle? Where does Tenyu get his 630 degrees from unless of course he does more than one [ in Aikido terms ] rotational movement?Having said that why would anyone want to rotate more than 360 degrees anyway?Ice skaters may do multiple rotational movements but these are just 360 degrees multiplied by the number of rotations they do.I have yet to see a compass/protractor that can draw /measure 630 degrees. Cheers, Joe.
