The principal range of arc tan is an angle in the open interval (-pi/2, pi/2) radians = (-90, 90) degrees.

What is tan20tan32 plus tan32tan38 plus tan38tan20?

This may not be the most efficient method but ... Let the three angle be A, B and C. Then note that A + B + C = 20+32+38 = 90 so that C = 90-A+B. Therefore, sin(C) = sin[(90-(A+B) = cos(A+B) and cos(C) = cos[(90-(A+B) = sin(A+B). So that tan(C) = sin(C)/cos(C) = cos(A+B) / sin(A+B) = cot(A+B) Now, tan(A+B) = [tan(A)+tan(B)] / [1- tan(A)*tan(B)] so cot(A+B) = [1- tan(A)*tan(B)] / [tan(A)+tan(B)] The given expressin is tan(A)*tan(B) + tan(B)*tan(C) + tan(C)*tan(A) = tan(A)*tan(B) + [tan(B) + tan(A)]*cot(A+B) substituting for cot(A+B) gives = tan(A)*tan(B) + [tan(B) + tan(A)]*[1- tan(A)*tan(B)]/[tan(A)+tan(B)] cancelling [tan(B) + tan(A)] and [tan(A) + tan(B)], which are equal, in the second expression. = tan(A)*tan(B) + [1- tan(A)*tan(B)] = 1


What is a good calculator for trigonometry?

Any calculator sold as a "scientific calculator" has the basic trigonometric functions (sin, cos, tan) and the inverse trigonometric functions (arc-sin, arc-cos, arc-tan). That's about all you need.You can also use the calculator that comes on your computer - for example, in Windows, press Windows-R, and then type "calc". You may have to change the calculator mode, to "scientific calculator". Yet another option is a spreadsheet, for example, Excel. Note that in Excel, angles are expressed in radians; if you want degrees, you also need the special functions to convert degrees to radians, or radians to degrees. However, if you want to do your homework while you are NOT at your computer, you are better off buying a calculator.


Which is greater tan 1tan2 tan3 .arrange them in descending order?

If the angles are measured in degrees or gradians, then: tan 3 > tan 2 > tan 1 If the angles are measured in radians, then: tan 1 > tan 3 > tan 2.


How can arccot of tanx be simplified?

There is not much that can be done by way of simplification. Suppose arccot(y) = tan(x) then y = cot[tan(x)] = 1/tan(tan(x)) Now cot is NOT the inverse of tan, but its reciprocal. So the expression in the first of above equation cannot be simplified further. Similarly tan[tan(x)] is NOT tan(x)*tan(x) = tan2(x)

How do you solve the limit as x approaches 90 degrees of cos 2x divided by tan 3x?

Take the limit of the top and the limit of the bottom. The limit as x approaches cos(2*90°) is cos(180°), which is -1. Now, take the limit as x approaches 90° of tan(3x). You might need a graph of tan(x) to see the limit. The limit as x approaches tan(3*90°) = the limit as x approaches tan(270°). This limit does not exist, so we'll need to take the limit from each side. The limit from the left is ∞, and the limit from the right is -∞. Putting the top and bottom limits back together results in the limit from the left as x approaches 90° of cos(2x)/tan(3x) being -1/∞, and the limit from the right being -1/-∞. -1 divided by a infinitely large number is 0, so the limit from the left is 0. -1 divided by an infinitely large negative number is also zero, so the limit from the right is also 0. Since the limits from the left and right match and are both 0, the limit as x approaches 90° of cos(2x)/tan(3x) is 0.


What is the angle between a line of a graph and a positive direction of the x-axis?

The angle is the arc-tan of the gradient of the line. That is to say, the tangent of that angle is the gradient of the line or the angle between the straight line and the positive x-axis. Arc tan may also be written as tan-1 but that is frequently confused with 1/tan or the cotangent function.

What are the alternative ways of finding the length of the hypotenuse of a right angle triangle without using Pythagoras theorem?

The least accurate is to draw the triangle and then measuring it. Alternatively you can use trigonometric ratios: tan = opposite/adjacent sin = opposite/hypotenuse → hypotenuse = opposite/sin cos = adjacent/hypotenuse → hypotenuse = adjacent/cos Using the tangent ration one of the non-right angles of the triangle can be found. Then using either the sine or cosine ratio the hypotenuse can be found. eg if the two "legs" are 1 cm and √2 cm, then: The angle at the end of the √2 cm side is: arc tan(1/√2) = 30° Then the hypotenuse is: 1 cm / sin (arc tan(1/√2)) = 1 cm / ½ = 2 cm. or √2 / cos (arc tan(1/√2)) = √2 / (1/√2) = √2 × √2 = 2. eg if the two "legs" are 3 cm and 4 cm, then: The angle at the end of the 4 cm side is: arc tan ¾ ≈ 36.87° The the hypotenuse is: 3 / sin(arc tan ¾) = 3/0.6 = 5 or 4 / cos(arc tan ¾) = 3/0.8 = 5

What are the polar coordinates?

What are polar coordinates of (√2, 1)? Solution: Here we need to convert from rectangular coordinates to polar coordinates: P = (x, y) = (r, θ) r = ± √(x^2 + y^2); tan θ = y/x or θ = arc tan (y/x) So we have: P = (√2, 1) r = ± √[(√2)^2 + 1^2] = ± √3 θ = arc tan (y/x) = arc tan (1/√2) = arc tan (√2/2) ≈ 35.3°, which is one possible value of the angle. (√2, 1) is in the Quadrant I. If θ = 35.3°, then the point is in the terminal ray, and so r = √3. Therefore polar coordinates are (√3, 35.3°). Another possible pair of polar coordinates of the same point is (-√3, 215.3°) (180° + 35.3° = 215.3°). Edit: Note the negative in the r value.
