Question

what is tan theta=3?

Answer 1

At what angle does tan(theta) equal 3

Answer 2

yes haha

Answer 3

tan(theta) = 3
theta = tan^-1(3)

Answer 4

dont you have a unit circle?

Answer 5

i do, but I'm not thinking right now. i just need an angle

Answer 6

punch what I told you into a calculator and that will give you your angle, just make sure you're in degree mode

Answer 7

Lagrange you are making me feel dumb....
how x is tan x=3 a known value on the unit circle?

Answer 8

can i just have an angel lol. I'm on a worksheet in class.

Answer 9

yes.

Answer 10

x, theta, pickles, who cares?
yeah but I honestly can't figure the special value

Answer 11

sin/cos=0,1,1/2,sqrt3/2 are spwcial values
I don't see how tanx=3 can be derived from that

Answer 12

oh my bad, i am not thinking

Answer 13

i had it in my mind firmly as sqrt(3)

Answer 14

ok, if it was tanx=sqrt3 you would have had something to work with

Answer 15

it happens ;)

Answer 16

theeta=71.5651

Answer 17

yeah just type that into your calc, and you will get an angle in radians

Answer 18

am i correct?
