You cannot calculate the angle using tangent: you need to use the inverse function: arctangent. The answer will be an angle, x, in the principal range (-90, 90) degrees. But it could be any (x + 180*k) for any integer k.

How do you calculate a 7.5 over 12 pitch into degrees?
This needs use of trigonometry. A pitch of 7.5/12 = 0.625 This means that the tangent of the angle is 0.625 Using trig tables or calculator, find the angle whose tangent is 0.625 The answer is 32 degrees
Where is the tangent secant angle on a circle?
The tangent secant angle is the angle between the tangent to a circle and the secant, when the latter is extended.
Convert degrees into a percent?
To obtain the percent value for an angle (in slopes and inclines), calculate the tangent of that angle in degrees, then multiply the figure by 100.
A tangent-tangent angle intercepts two arcs that measure 164 and 196 What is the measure of the tangent-tangent angle?
196-164/2= 16
If you have the tangent of an angle as .171 What degree does this equal?
If the tangent of the angle is [0.171], then the angle is approximately [9.704 degrees] (rounded)
How do you calculate the base of the right triangle given the height and the opposite angle?
By using the tangent ratio of: opposite/tangent angle = adjacent which is the base
How do you calculate the angle for length 2700 and height 1680?
Using these two measurements you would calculate the angle using the tangent. In this case: tan (theta) = 1680/2700
How do you calculate tangent of an angle?
the tangent of an angle is equal to the length of the opposite side from the angle divided by the length of the side adjacent to the angle.
How tall is a boy that casts a 4 ft shadow?
The height of a boy that casts a 4 foot long shadow depends on the angle of the sun. A tangent can be used to calculate his height if we know the angle of the sun using the equation: Height = shadow length x tangent of the angle of the sun. Using a calculator, it is easy to get the value of the tangent for any angle and then complete the equation.
How do I find the tangent of an angle?
Use a calculator. There is no simple way to calculate it.
How do you calculate a 7.5 over 12 pitch into degrees?

How do you calculate the angle for length 2350 and height 500?
Find the angle whose tangent is 500/2350, about 12 degrees
Where is the tangent secant angle on a circle?
The tangent secant angle is the angle between the tangent to a circle and the secant, when the latter is extended.
A tangent-tangent angle intercepts two arcs that measure 149 and 211 What is the measure of the tangent-tangent angle?
31 degrees
A tangent-tangent angle intercepts two arcs that measure 135 and 225 What is the measure of the tangent-tangent angle?
45 degrees
How do you find the height of a right angle?
Assuming you know the angle of ascension, and the base, you can calculate the height by recalling that tangent theta is height over base. Simple algebra from there: height is tangent theta times base.
Convert degrees into a percent?
To obtain the percent value for an angle (in slopes and inclines), calculate the tangent of that angle in degrees, then multiply the figure by 100.
