Answer:
261.98 is the value of the given expression.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to find the value of the following expression:
Using the associative property, we can write and solve the given expression as:
Rounding off the answer, we get,
Thus, 261.98 is the value of the given expression.

y = 2
x = 1
z(the hypotenuse) = √(2^2 + 1^2) = √5
Cos(u) = x value / hypotenuse = 1/√5
Sin(u) = y value / hypotenuse = 2/√5
Solve for sin2u
Sin(2u) = 2*sin(u)*cos(u)
Sin(2u) = 2() = 4/5
Solve for cos(2u)
cos(2u) = - sqrt(1 - sin^2(2u))
Cos(2u) = - sqrt(1 - (4/5)^2 )
Cos(2u) = -sqrt(1 - 16/25)
cos(2u) = -sqrt(9/25)
cos(2u) = -3/5
Solve for Tan(2u)
tan(2u) = sin(2u) / cos(2u) = 4/5// - 3/5 = - 0.8/0.6 = - 1.3333 = - 4/3
Notes
One: Notice that you would normally rationalize the denominator, but you don't have to in this case. The formulas are such that they perform the rationalizations themselves.
Two: Notice the sign on the cos(2u). The sin is plus even though the angle (2u) is in the second quadrant. The cos is different. It is about 126 degrees which would make it a negative root (9/25)
Three: If you are uncomfortable with the tan, you could do fractions.
