Question

if tan 0 = 5/4 calculate the value of 0

Answer 1

Hey mads, for future reference, if you're trying to find "theta", use "alt+233", not 0.

Answer 2

ok thank you, do you know the answer?

Answer 3

I believe so, if you're able to use a calculator. Remember that when solving for a variable in an algebraic equation, then you have to do the opposite of what's being acted upon it to remove it. For example: If sinΘ=1, find Θ. You'd start by finding the opposite of finding the sin of something. That, in short, is "inverse sin", or sin^{-1}. Thusly, multiply both sides by inverse sin to isolate Θ, and solve for it. Understand?
