Hi

OpenStudy (shaleiah):

Hello :)

OpenStudy (shaleiah):

I need help finding the angle to the nearest degree.

OpenStudy (shaleiah):

@skullpatrol

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

Any ideas? :-)

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

Hint: Use the definition of the tangent of the angle.

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

|dw:1453323433759:dw|

OpenStudy (shaleiah):

\[\tan ^{-1}\left( 7 \right)/5\]

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

Close, but the tangent is the opposite/ adjacent

OpenStudy (shaleiah):

\[\tan ^{-1}\ \left( \frac{ 5 }{ 7 } \right)\]

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

|dw:1453323659778:dw|

OpenStudy (shaleiah):

It would be 35 degrees

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

Yes tan ? = 5/7
