Finding the Tangent by Drawing and Measurement

Example 1.2.1:

By drawing and measurements find the size of the angles to the nearest degree whose tangents are:

(a) \( \frac{3}{5} \)

(b) \( \frac{3}{8} \)

(c) \( \frac{7}{20} \)

Solution

(a) \( \frac{3}{5} \)

Tan θ = \( \frac{3}{5} \)means opposite is 3 cm and adjacent is 5 cm

The lengths of the opposite and adjacent are in the ratio 3 : 5.
