Homework Statement
See the attached screenshots for the details and my progress so far.

1)My first question is: Is my picture an accurate rendition of the problem?
2) Am I on the right track with my Boundary Conditions and my first few steps at solving part a)?
Thanks in advance.

It would be easier if you took the ##\theta## boundary conditions at ##-\beta/2## and ##+\beta/2##
Thanks, I agree that would make things easier. Is my diagram correct, though? and is everything else correct?
