6 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for percent change is

change/original.

So let's subtract 17 from 55 to find the change. 55-17=38

This is the change. Now we divide it by the original, 17.

38/17=2.235294

We're not done yet! We have to move the decimal point over to the right 2 spaces to make it a percentage. So, the percentage increase is

about 223.53 percent

Let $x=\arctan y$ . Then $\tan x=y$ , and so as $x\to\dfrac\pi2^-$ , you have $y\to+\infty$ . The limit is then equivalent to

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to\frac\pi2^-}\ln(\tan x)=\lim_{y\to\infty}\ln y=\infty$
