Tan(a/2) = sin a / (1 + cos a)
tan(45/2) = sin(45) / (1 + cos(45)) = (1/√2) / (1 + 1/√2) = (1/√2) / (√2 + 1)/√2 = 1/(√2 + 1) = (√2 - 1)
There is not an exact way to answer that question. The number of representatives each state has is determined by the population. However, the total number of house representatives has been capped at 435 since 1913. Currently, the ratio of constituents to representatives is 700,000 to 1. So if you divide the total population by 700,000 you will have an approximation of the number of representatives.
Answer: x=0.6435011
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the inverse tangent of both sides of the equation to extract
x
from inside the tangent.
x
=
arctan
(

.
x
=
0.6435011
The tangent function is positive in the first and third quadrants. To find the second solution, add the reference angle from
π
to find the solution in the fourth quadrant.
