Short Answer

Expert verified

The equation is $\tan (x 掳) = \frac{15}{21}$ .And the simplified value of $x = 36$ .

Step by step solution

Step 1. Write down the given information.

The given figure is shown below.

Step 2. Concept used.

The six trigonometric functions are $\sin 胃, 鈥� 鈥� \csc 胃, 鈥� 鈥� \cos 胃, 鈥� 鈥� \sec 胃, 鈥� 鈥� \tan 胃, 鈥� 鈥� \cot 胃$ .

Let $(x, y)$ be a point in X-Y plane and (r)be the length of a line segment drawn from the origin to the point.

]

In, $螖 O A B, O A = r, 鈥� O B = x, 鈥� A B = y$

Therefore, six trigonometric functions are;

$\begin{matrix} \sin 胃 = \frac{A B}{O A} 鈥� = \frac{y}{r} 鈥�, 鈥� \csc 胃 = \frac{1}{\sin 胃} = \frac{O A}{A B} = \frac{r}{y} \\ \cos 胃 = \frac{O B}{O A} = \frac{x}{r}, \sec 胃 = \frac{1}{\cos 胃} = \frac{O A}{O B} = \frac{r}{x} \\ \tan 胃 = \frac{A B}{O B} = \frac{y}{x}, \cot 胃 = \frac{1}{\tan 胃} = \frac{O B}{A B} = \frac{x}{y} \end{matrix}$

Step 3. Calculation.

The equation that can be used to find $(x)$ is written below.

$\tan (x 掳) = \frac{15}{21}$

Now, the equation $\tan (x 掳) = \frac{15}{21}$ is solved as,

$\begin{matrix} \tan (x 掳) = \frac{15}{21} \\ x 掳 = \tan^{鈭� 1} (\frac{15}{21}) \\ x 掳 = 35.54 掳 \\ x 掳 = 36 掳 \end{matrix}$

Step 4. Conclusion.

The equation is $\tan (x 掳) = \frac{15}{21}$ . And the simplified value of $x = 36$ .
