What is arctan(5/2)?
Answer
arctan(5/2) ≈
68.1986° ≈ 1.1903 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.
5/2 = 2.5.
arctan(5/2) is the angle α in (−90°, 90°) with tan α = 5/2.
tan 68.1986° ≈ 2.5000
α = arctan(5/2) ≈ 68.1986°
P ≈ (0.3714, 0.9285)
T(1, 5/2) is where line OP meets the line x = 1, beyond the drawing (the arrow points to it); highlighted: tan α = 5/2.
