Answer:

the tangent of angle y is equal to the length of the side opposite the angle y divided by the length of the side adjacent to the angle , so tan y = 52.2/29.4=1.77551....

if you wish to calculate the measure of the angle whose tangent is 1, type 2nd tan 1.77551 and the calculator displays: 60.610985...=60.6°.

y≈60.6°

i'm french to calculate i have a casio but with any brand you find the same measure measures are always approximate
