Question

To the nearest whole degree, what angle measure has a tangent of 9.1834?
Question 5 options:

A.) 84º


B.) 89º


C.) 1º


D.) 83º

Answer 1

tan x = 9.1834
x = tan ^(-1) ( 9.1834 )
x = 83.7854° ≈ 84°
Answer: 84°

Answer 2

Solution:

we have been asked to find

what angle measure has a tangent of 9.1834? To the nearest whole degree.

Let the required angle be x then we can write

$tanx=9.1834\\\\x=tan^{-1}(9.1834)\\\\\text{Now using calculator we can find the value as below}\\\\x\approx84^o$
