find the measure of angle p 30.4° 35.9° 54.1° 59.6°

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (shamil98):

tan p = 33.8/57.6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

tan(p)=opposite/adjacent, so tan(p)=33.8/57.6, and once you have that value divided out, do tangent inverse and you'll get your angle measure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what is tangent inverse

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@shamil98 can you show me like you did before ?

OpenStudy (shamil98):

tan p = 0.58680555555 Now to get rid of tan and solve for p. you take use the inverse function p = arctan (0.58680555555)

OpenStudy (shamil98):

arctan = tan^-1 = inverse of tan

OpenStudy (shamil98):

p = arctan (0.58680555555) p = 30.4 degrees

OpenStudy (shamil98):

|dw:1385607983793:dw| Tangent function is = opposite to angle / adjacent ( same side) to angle
