Math Problem Statement
0=tan^-1(0.29)
Solution
The equation is asking for the angle whose tangent is 0.29.
However, refers to the inverse tangent function (also called arctangent), which is used to find the angle corresponding to a given tangent value.
Let's break it down:
- is the angle such that:
This implies the value of is a positive angle, not zero. The value of would give a specific angle, but it's not zero.
To find this angle, we compute:
Using a calculator or mathematical software:
Thus, the equation does not hold true, since is approximately , not zero.
