Tan 53 Degrees
Sin, Cos, Tan, Cot of an Angle
What is tan 53°?
Answer
tan 53° ≈
1.3270
Angle in radians: 53° = 53π/180. The point of the angle is in quadrant I, where tangent is positive.
≈ — rounded to 4 decimal places. tan 53° can't be written with square roots: 53° is not a multiple of 3°.
tan 53° = sin 53° / cos 53° ≈ 1.3270
P(cos 53°, sin 53°) ≈ (0.6018, 0.7986)
T(1, tan 53°) ≈ (1, 1.3270) — where line OP meets the line x = 1.

FAQ
What is tan 53°?
tan 53° ≈ 1.3270
Why does tan 53° have no exact value?
A trigonometric value of a whole number of degrees can be written with square roots only when the angle is a multiple of 3°. 53° is not, so no such exact form exists; the value is used as a decimal: tan 53° ≈ 1.3270.
Why does a calculator show −0.4312 for tan 53?
The calculator is in radian mode (RAD): it takes tan 53 as the tangent of 53 radians, tan 53 rad ≈ −0.4312. Switch it to degrees (DEG): tan 53° ≈ 1.3270. In radians the value is never undefined: π is irrational, so a whole number of radians never lands exactly on an axis.
