In the 1st column make a list of numbers, and in the 2nd column calculate the tangent of each value in the 1st column. Try entering 0.01 in A1 and =A1+0.01 in A2, then select A2:A942 and fill down. In B1 enter =tan(A1), then select B1:B942 and fill down. Next, select A1:B942, then insert a line graph. Adjust the Y axis range until it looks good.

How do you graph cool images on a ti 84?

This is for a cool bridge. First, press the (Y=) button. Then, follow the orders of these buttons: (MATH), (Right Arrow), (Enter), (TAN), (TAN), (COS), the X variable button, (Right Arrow), (*), (-), (1), and then press graph


If for a triangle abc tan a-b plus tan b-c plus tan c-a equals 0 then what can you say about the triangle?

tan (A-B) + tan (B-C) + tan (C-A)=0 tan (A-B) + tan (B-C) - tan (A-C)=0 tan (A-B) + tan (B-C) = tan (A-C) (A-B) + (B-C) = A-C So we can solve tan (A-B) + tan (B-C) = tan (A-C) by first solving tan x + tan y = tan (x+y) and then substituting x = A-B and y = B-C. tan (x+y) = (tan x + tan y)/(1 - tan x tan y) So tan x + tan y = (tan x + tan y)/(1 - tan x tan y) (tan x + tan y)tan x tan y = 0 So, tan x = 0 or tan y = 0 or tan x = - tan y tan(A-B) = 0 or tan(B-C) = 0 or tan(A-B) = - tan(B-C) tan(A-B) = 0 or tan(B-C) = 0 or tan(A-B) = tan(C-B) A, B and C are all angles of a triangle, so are all in the range (0, pi). So A-B and B-C are in the range (- pi, pi). At this point I sketched a graph of y = tan x (- pi < x < pi) By inspection I can see that: A-B = 0 or B-C = 0 or A-B = C-B or A-B = C-B +/- pi A = B or B = C or A = C or A = C +/- pi But A and C are both in the range (0, pi) so A = C +/- pi has no solution So A = B or B = C or A = C A triangle ABC has the property that tan (A-B) + tan (B-C) + tan (C-A)=0 if and only if it is isosceles (or equilateral).


What is cos x tan x simlpified?

The definition of tan(x) = sin(x)/cos(x). By this property, cos(x)tan(x) = sin(x).


Verify the identity sinx cotx - cosx divided by tanx equals 0?

(sin(x)cot(x) - cos(x))/tan(x)(Multiply by tan(x)/tan(x))sin(x) - cos(x)tan(x)(tan(x) = sin(x)/cos(x))sinx - cos(x)(sin(x)/cos(x))(cos(x) cancels out)sin(x) - sin(x)0

How do you plot a Acceleration vs sin theta graph on Microsoft Excel?

To plot an Acceleration vs sin theta graph in Microsoft Excel, you first need to have the data for acceleration and sin theta in two columns. Then select the two columns of data, go to the "Insert" tab, choose "Scatter" from the charts group, and then select a scatter plot with data points only. Finally, customize your graph by adding axis labels and a title.

How do you convert degrees to slope in excel?

In Excel, as in all advanced mathematics, angles are measured in radians, rather than degrees.So the calculation isx deg is equivalent to x*pi/180 radians and then, the slope is tan(x*pi/180).In fact, you need to enter "= tan(x*pi()/180)"

What is the period of y equals -5 tan x?

y = -5tan(x) can also be written y/(-5) = tan(x). In other words, the -5 just changes the y values and the orientation of the graph (it flips tan(x) over the y axis and stretches the graph up and down). So -5tan(x), like tan(x), has a period of pi. This is because tan is the y value divided by the x value at any given point on the unit circle. At 0 degrees, x is at one and y is at zero, so tan0o = 0. As we travel counterclockwise around the unit circle, tan is next equal to zero when x is equal to zero. This occurs halfway around the circle at 180o, or (in radians) pi.


Define the x and y axis in Microsoft Excel?

On a graph the x axis is the one going across the screen, the horizontal axis, and the y axis is going up or down, the vertical axis. A very simple way of remember is to think that the letter x looks like a cross. The letter x is a cross, and the x axis goes across the screen.
