Because the tangent is a function of with the angle as its argument.
Angle a, by itself has no value. You must first assign a value to a to get the value of tan a.
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.
The inverse tangent, denoted as arctan or tan^(-1), of 1.4737 is approximately 56.05 degrees when measured in degrees or approximately 0.980 radians when measured in radians. This value represents the angle whose tangent is 1.4737. In trigonometry, the inverse tangent function helps determine the angle when the tangent ratio is known.
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.
Tangent is a function that can have any real value. Therefore one tangent can take any value in (-∞, ∞).
Angle a, by itself has no value. You must first assign a value to a to get the value of tan a.
Oh, dude, the angle that has a tangent of 1 is 45 degrees or π/4 radians. It's like the cool kid at the math party, always hanging out with a value of 1 and making all the other angles jealous. So, if you wanna be in the tangent club, just remember 45 degrees is where it's at.

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.
It is a tangent.
The inverse tangent, also called the arc-tangent.
Tangent is a function that can have any real value. Therefore one tangent can take any value in (-∞, ∞).
It is a function which maps the tangent ratio - any real value - to an angle in the range (-pi/2, pi/2) radians. Or (-90, 90) degrees.If tan(x) = y then x is the inverse tangent of y.It is also known as "arc tangent", and spreadsheets, such as Excel, use "atan" for this function.Warning:1/tangent = cotangent is the reciprocal, NOT the inverse.
tan (theta x theta) : must square the value of the angle, theta, before applying the trig function, tangent.
For the tangential value tan θ = 1/2, the angle θ is 26.565° (0.464 radians). The tangent is the opposite side over the adjacent side for an angle, or otherwise sin θ /cos θ.
It is the value of that particular angle, which can be any number between 0 and 360 degrees.
