Question

Determine the measure of the angle represented by Ø using the inverse tangent function

a 50.2°

b. 56.4°

C 39.8

d. 33.6°

ANSWER:C

Answer 1

C

Explanation:

on edge

Answer 2

39.80°

Explanation:

Find the diagram attached

Given the following

Opposite side = 5m

Adjacent = 6m

Required

Angle Ø

Using the SOH CAH TOA identity

Tan Ø = opposite/adjacent

Tan Ø = 5/6

Tan Ø = 0.8333

Ø = arctan(0.8333)

Ø = 39.80°

Hence the measure of the angle represented by Ø is 39.80°
