Rotating Image between 2 angles in Javascript using p5.js

I want to rotate my image between cos(20) and -cos(20) with a smooth animation.

The tree is done recursively with branch() function. I can't figure out how to do it with loops. Is there a built in function or a specific algorithm to do so?

let angles = 0;
  var strokeValue = 1;
  function setup() {
    const canvas = createCanvas(540, 400);
    frameRate(8);
  }
 
  function draw() {
    background(220);
    angle = PI/8;
    translate(250, height);
    // I think the rotate function should be here
    branch(90); 
  }

  function branch(length) {
    strokeWeight(strokeValue);
    line(1, 1, 1, -length);
    translate(0, -length);
    if (length > 4) {
      //Right branches
      push();
      rotate(angle);
      branch(length * 0.72);
      pop();
      // left branches
      push();
      rotate(-angle);
      branch(length * 0.72);
      pop();
      push();
      // middle
      rotate(-angle * 0.2);
      branch(length * 0.3);
      pop();
    } 
  }

I tried this, though I'm not sure it's what you asked for so feel free to comment.

let angles = 0;
  var strokeValue = 1;
  function setup() {
    const canvas = createCanvas(540, 400);
    frameRate(30);
  }
 
  function draw() {
    background(220);
    angle = PI/8;
    translate(250, height);
    // I think the rotate function should be here
    rotate(cos(map(frameCount / 10,0,100,-20,20)));
    branch(90); 
  }

  function branch(length) {
    strokeWeight(strokeValue);
    line(1, 1, 1, -length);
    translate(0, -length);
    if (length > 4) {
      //Right branches
      push();
      rotate(angle);
      branch(length * 0.72);
      pop();
      // left branches
      push();
      rotate(-angle);
      branch(length * 0.72);
      pop();
      push();
      // middle
      rotate(-angle * 0.2);
      branch(length * 0.3);
      pop();
    } 
  }
