When you say Tangent of 30 equals -6.40 does the -6.40 represent the length or angle of something else?

In a right triangle, the tangent of an angle other than the right angle is the ratio of the length of the side opposite the angle over the length of the side adjacent to the angle (the side between the angle and the right angle).


What ratio relates the length of the leg opposite the angle in question to the length of the leg adjacent to the angle?

This ratio is the tangent of the angle.If the triangle is a right angled triangle and the angle in question is not the right angle, then it is the tangent of the angle in question.

In math What is the difference between tan and tan-1?

In mathematics, "tan" refers to the tangent function, which calculates the ratio of the opposite side to the adjacent side in a right triangle for a given angle. On the other hand, "tan⁻¹" (or arctan) is the inverse tangent function, which takes a ratio and returns the angle whose tangent is that ratio. Essentially, while tan gives you the tangent of an angle, tan⁻¹ helps you find the angle when you know the tangent value.
