cot(11pi/12)

hero (hero):

1/tan(11(180)/12) = 1/tan(11*15) = 1/tan(165) = 1/(sqrt(3) - 2) = -(sqrt(3) + 2) = -3.73

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you explain the answer a little simpler. i'm still confused

hero (hero):

pi = 180 degrees

hero (hero):

also tan(165) = (tan (30) + tan (135))

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay, another question. where did you get the sqrt after 1/tan(165)?

hero (hero):

cot(x) = 1/tan(x)
