How do you find the tangent of an angle?

Can you use the tangent ratio to find the length of the hypotenuse?
No; the tangent ratio only deals with the lengths of the opposite side and adjacent side. You can square the two sides and add them together, then find the square root of the sum to find the length of the hypotenuse.
How do you find the measurement of an angle when they give you it's tangent?
You times it by 2....UR WELCOME
How do you find length of a tree?
Using trigonometry. By measuring a certain distance from the tree and knowing the angle of elevation you can use the tangent ratio: tan = opp (the height of the tree)/adj (the distance) Rearrange the formula: opp = adj*tan
What is the angle o of inclination with a road grade of 4.5 percent?
For every 4.5 rise, the run is 100, hence tangent of the angle of inclination is (4.5/100) = 0.045. Now find out the angle whose tangent is 0.045 from a table or using a calculator. It turns out to be 2.576 degrees
How do you find how many degrees a shape is without a protractor?
The degree of an angle can be determined using the tangent function. From one ray of the angle, draw a perpendicular line until it intersects the other ray of the angle. Measure the length of the first ray (A) and the perpendicular line (B) and set as a ratio of B/A. This ratio is equal to the tangent of the angle.

How do you find a cotangent?
1/(tangent of angle)
How do you find the angle of a slope?
its the tangent of the angle the slope makes with the x-axis
How do you find the elevation of the sun?
WARNING: Do not, under any conditions, look at the sun, directly or indirectly.The find the elevation of the sun, measure the angle that an object's shadow from the sun makes. One way to do this is with a stick in the ground. Assuming the stick is perpendicular to the ground, the ratio of the stick's length to the shadow's length is the tangent of the angle of elevation. Solve for inverse tangent, and you have the angle.
How do you find the measure of a tangent angle?
Take the inverse tangent -- tan-1(opposite side/adjacent side)
How do I find the tangent of an angle?
Use a calculator. There is no simple way to calculate it.
Can you use the tangent ratio to find the length of the hypotenuse?
No; the tangent ratio only deals with the lengths of the opposite side and adjacent side. You can square the two sides and add them together, then find the square root of the sum to find the length of the hypotenuse.
How do you find the angle of elevation of the sun if the shadow of the pole 60 ft tall reaches 92 ft from the pole?
Providing that the pole is on level ground you have the outline of a right angled triangle with an adjacent side of 92 ft (the shadow of the pole) and a opposite side of 60 ft (the height of the pole). To find the angle of elevation use the tangent ratio. Tangent = Opposite/Adjacent Tangent = 60/92 = 0.652173913 Tan-1(0.652173913) = 33.11134196 degrees Therefore the angle of elevation is 33o correct to two significant figures.
Ratio of the angles in a triangle?
if the angle of a triangle are in the ratio 7:11:18,find the angle
How do you find the tan angle of 4900 and 19600?
Although you haven't expressed it too clearly in your question, I think what you may belooking for is the angle whose tangent is 4,900, and the angle whose tangent is 19,600 .The problem is that the tangent of 89 degrees is about 57.3, and every numberfrom 57.3 all the way up to 'infinity' is the tangent of an angle somewhere in thatlast degree, between 89 and 90 . . . They really bunch up in there !4,900 is the tangent of 89.9883 degrees. (rounded)19,600 is the tangent of 89.9971 degrees. (rounded)
What is the ratio used to find the tangent of a triangle In trigonometry what three common ratios are used to find the measures of the angles and sides of triangles?
