i sure hope i spelt that right :)

Answer 4

I call it a protractor :)

Answer 5

land lubbers ye be

Answer 6

whoops sorry guys hold on

Answer 7

pfft!!; thats a tangent

Answer 8

A = arctan(100/249)

Answer 9

it aint 45 or bigger i can tell that much

Answer 10

Answer 12

you gotta UNDO the tangent; and we do that with the arctan function

Answer 13

tan(angle) = ratio

angle = arctan(ratio)

Answer 14

okay i think i got it! thank you soooo much!!! :)
