Write tan 8.5÷17.7 in degrees and minute?

Answer 1

To convert 8.5 ÷ 17.7 into degrees and minutes, we first need to calculate the decimal value of this division.

8.5 ÷ 17.7 ≈ 0.4802

Now, we convert this decimal value into degrees and minutes.
To convert the decimal into degrees, we multiply by 360 (since there are 360 degrees in a circle).

0.4802 * 360 = 172.872

Since we want the value in degrees and minutes, we will convert the decimal part (0.872) into minutes by multiplying it by 60.

0.872 * 60 = 52.32

So, tan 8.5 ÷ 17.7 is approximately equal to 172 degrees 52 minutes.
