path angle response transfer functions given by equations (10.6) and (10.18). This
is due to the fact that the algebraic forms are based on a number of simplifying
approximations, whereas the numerical forms were obtained from an exact solution of
the state equation (10.8) without approximation. However, with reference to Fig. 10.1
both equations (10.17) and (10.18) may be approximated by transfer functions having
constant numerators in the style of equations (10.5) and (10.6) respectively, and in
both cases the response shapes are essentially identical. Equations (10.17) and
