[New-bugs-announce] [issue41528] Use math module in turtle

[Marek Madejski]

New submission from Marek Madejski <marekmadejski at gmail.com>:

"Turtle" module is closely related to geometry, which is also covered by "math" (and "cmath") module. Nevertheless, in many places in "turtle" the wheel is being reinvented. Currently, only π and basing trig functions are used.
Performance may be improved by such refactor (for example, by using "math.hypot" instead of manual calculation of vector norm).
