Banking angle change, the turning radius get smaller.

B=K/R

B: banking angle

R: turning radius

K: inverse variation

The banking angle as shown in the picture is the slanting degree that a car driving on a highway ramp with X radius . The question is how would you figure out the slanting degree for the ramp design, so when the car drive on the ramp will be balanced horizontally with the banking angle given as picture shown.
