% Computes the skew angle for a single dipole used to control yaw and roll.
The x-axis is assumed to be the roll axis and the z-axis is assumed to be
the yaw axis. The y-axis is along orbit anti-normal.
Since version 1.

Inputs
------
b (3,1) Magnetic field vector (T)
tRoll (1,1) Maximum roll torque (N)

-------
Outputs
-------
theta (1,1) Positive angle (about +y)
of the dipole taken from +x (deg)
mDipole (1,1) Dipole magnitude (ATM^2)
