Answer 6

have a look at this unit circle

http://www.regentsprep.org/Regents/math/algtrig/ATT5/600px-Unit_circle_angles_svg.jpg

and tell me which angle you think makes tan(x) = sqrt(3) true

Answer 7

Thats confusing ?

Answer 8

have you seen the unit circle before

Answer 9

if this is the first time, then I recommend studying it

Answer 10

No this isnt my first time

Answer 11

ok if you were to divide the y coordinate of the point at x = 30 degrees by the x coordinate, what do you get?

Answer 12

Give you please give me an calculator so i can get the answer. My calculator went dead.

Answer 13

you can use wolfram alpha

Answer 14

i got 120

Answer 15

no the angle is between 0 and 90

Answer 16

look on that page I sent you and look for the section "Conversion from radians to degrees:"

Answer 17

I got it. It's 60

Answer 18

yep

Answer 19

Can you help me with 3 more

Answer 20

sure

Answer 21

you there ?

Answer 22

I would use this identity

tan^2 = sec^2 - 1

so the equation turns into


sec^2(theta) - 1 = (-3/2)*sec(theta)

now let z = sec(theta) to get

z^2 - 1 = (-3/2)*z

2z^2 - 2 = -3z

2z^2 + 3z - 2 = 0

Now solve for z and tell me what you get

Answer 23

Will this give me my answser ?

Answer 24

it will lead you up to it, so kinda

Answer 25

tell me what you got for z
