If tan U = 1.57 what is the measurement of < U. Round your number to theb nearest whole number degree

Answer:

U ≈ 58°

Explanation:

To find the measurement of angle U, we will follow the steps below;

first find the tan⁻¹ of both-side of the equation

tan U = 1.57

tan⁻¹tan U =tan⁻¹ 1.57

At the left-hand side of the equation, tan⁻¹ will cancel-out tan, leaving us with just U

U = tan⁻¹ 1.57

Use your calculator to find the tan⁻¹ of 1.57 by pressing shift and then tan on your calculator, then insert the value 1.57

U ≈ 58° to the nearest whole number degree
