What is arctan(60)?
Answer
arctan(60) ≈
89.0452° ≈ 1.5541 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.
If 60 is an angle in degrees, you need the direct function: tan 60° = √3.
arctan(60) is the angle α in (−90°, 90°) with tan α = 60.
tan 89.0452° ≈ 60.0026 — not exactly 60 because the angle is rounded to 4 decimal places.
α = arctan(60) ≈ 89.0452°
P ≈ (0.0167, 0.9999)
T(1, 60) is where line OP meets the line x = 1, beyond the drawing (the arrow points to it); highlighted: tan α = 60.
