tan(x)= 4/10

tan (x) = \frac{4}{10}

x = 0.38050 \dots + πn

Degrees

x = 21.80140 \dots^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

tan (x) = \frac{4}{10}

Cancel the common factor:

2

tan (x) = \frac{2}{5}

Apply trig inverse properties

tan (x) = \frac{2}{5}

General solutions for

tan (x) = \frac{2}{5}

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

x = arctan (\frac{2}{5}) + πn

x = arctan (\frac{2}{5}) + πn

Show solutions in decimal form

x = 0.38050 \dots + πn
