Use a table of trigonometric values to find the angle θ in the right triangle in the following problem. Round to the nearest degree, if necessary.

Question

tan θ = 1.00 O = ? A = 247

Answer 1

Given that tan θ = 1.00, we can find the angle θ by using the inverse tangent function (also known as arctan or tan^-1).

Looking at the table of trigonometric values, we can find that the inverse tangent of 1.00 is approximately 45 degrees.

Therefore, the angle θ is approximately 45 degrees.
