tan(x)= 12/20

tan (x) = \frac{12}{20}

x = 0.54041 \dots + πn

Degrees

x = 30.96375 \dots^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

tan (x) = \frac{12}{20}

Cancel the common factor:

4

tan (x) = \frac{3}{5}

Apply trig inverse properties

tan (x) = \frac{3}{5}

General solutions for

tan (x) = \frac{3}{5}

tan (x) = a \Rightarrow x = arctan (a) + πn

x = arctan (\frac{3}{5}) + πn

x = arctan (\frac{3}{5}) + πn

Show solutions in decimal form

x = 0.54041 \dots + πn
