Answer:

The equation of circle of radius r whose centre is the origin (0, 0) ,

It is given by: $x^2+y^2 =r^2$ ......[1]

Given the equation: $x^2+y^2 =8$

To find the radius of the circle;

Compare the given equation with [1] we have;

$r^2 = 8$

Taking square root both sides we get;

$r = \sqrt{8} = 2\sqrt{2}$ units

Therefore, the radius of the circle is, $2\sqrt{2}$ units

Check the picture below

now, 26°35' is just 26bdegrees and 35 minutes

your calculator most likely will have a button [ ° ' " ] to enter degrees and minutes and seconds

there are 60 minutes in 1 degree and 60 seconds in 1 minute

so.. you could also just convert the 35' to 35/60 degrees

so $\bf 26^o35'\implies 26+\frac{35}{60}\implies \cfrac{1595}{60}\iff \cfrac{319}{12}
\\\\\\
tan(26^o35')\iff tan\left[ \left( \cfrac{391}{12} \right)^o \right]$

now, the angle is in degrees, thus, make sure your calculator is in Degree mode
