Question

Find each angle measure to the nearest degree. 15) tan C = 0.1405

Answer 1

Answer:

$C=8^o$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the angle C given the equation $tan(C)=0.1405$, use the "arctan" function [which is the inverse function of tangent] on both sides of the equation as shown below:

$tan(C)=0.1405\\arctan(tan(C)) = arctan(0.1405)\\C=arctan(0.1405)\\C=7.9977^o$

This can be rounded to the nearest degree as: $C=8^o$
