What is arctan(1/5)?
Answer
arctan(1/5) ≈
11.3099° ≈ 0.1974 rad
Range: arctan x is an angle strictly between −90° and 90°, so the answer is unique.
≈ — the value is not a table one; rounded to 4 decimal places.
1/5 = 0.2.
arctan(1/5) is the angle α in (−90°, 90°) with tan α = 1/5.
tan 11.3099° ≈ 0.2000
α = arctan(1/5) ≈ 11.3099°
P ≈ (0.9806, 0.1961)
T(1, 1/5) is where line OP meets the line x = 1; highlighted: tan α = 1/5.
