Determine the missing coordinates of the points on the graph of the function.

OpenStudy (paxpolaris):

what's \(\Large \tan \left( -\frac \pi 6 \right)\) and \(\Large \arctan \left( -\sqrt3 \right)\) ?

OpenStudy (konradzuse):

-1/sqrt(3) and -pi/3?

OpenStudy (konradzuse):

so that's all I needed to do huh?

OpenStudy (paxpolaris):

yeah -sqrt(3)/3 & -pi/3

OpenStudy (konradzuse):

π/4 doesn't give an approximation :(

OpenStudy (paxpolaris):

π/4??

OpenStudy (konradzuse):

0.66577 so 0.666 dun dun dun :P

OpenStudy (konradzuse):

π/4 is at the top.

OpenStudy (paxpolaris):

tan pi/4 is exactly 1

OpenStudy (konradzuse):

oh okay I did arctan, why did we use tan for 1 and arctan for the other?

OpenStudy (paxpolaris):

\[\Large y=\arctan (x)\]\[\Large \implies x=\tan(y)\] depends, whether you are trying to find \(x\) or \(y\) co-ordinate...

OpenStudy (konradzuse):

yeah gotcha, I thought they were all x's, but the last one wasn't, thus arctan, thanks :D
