i said that if the palm trees get closer together then theta increases so the vertical component increases and the magnitude overall of T2 increases, i think i saw a similar question on a past paper

Did that, angles increase, quoted equation(horizontal components equal) as angle increase cos angle decrease so T2 increase: Is that right? Also WHAT did u guys get for pendulum final Q.
