Question

Find the value of x to the nearest tenth.

Problem: tan2 = 4 over x

Answer 1

Is that \(\sf tan(2^o) = \dfrac{4}{x}\)

Answer 2

Yes.

Answer 3

Okay, plug in tan 2 degrees into your calculator, what do you get?

Answer 4

0.0349207695

Answer 5

Yes, so we have:

\(\sf 0.0349207695 = \dfrac{4}{x}\)

Multiply 'x' to both sides:

\(\sf 0.0349207695x = 4\)

Divide 0.0349207695 to both sides.

Answer 6

4 / 0.0349207695 = ?
