What is arctan(2)?
Answer
arctan(2) ≈
63.4349° ≈ 1.1071 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.
arctan(2) is the angle α in (−90°, 90°) with tan α = 2.
tan 63.4349° ≈ 2.0000
α = arctan(2) ≈ 63.4349°
P ≈ (0.4472, 0.8944)
T(1, 2) is where line OP meets the line x = 1; highlighted: tan α = 2.
