Question

How do you solve the equation `tanG=0.125`?

Answer 1

`G = arctan(0.125) ~= 0.124` radians

Explanation:

Let's assume that the question is asking us to solve for `G`. We can use the inverse function of `tan`, sometimes called `arctan` or `tan^(-1)`. To use it we need to take the inverse function of both sides of the equation:

`arctan(tan(G)) = arctan(0.125)`

`=> G = arctan(0.125) ~= 0.124` radians

This is the primary solution for `G`. There are other values of `G` which will satisfy this equation

`G ~= 0.124 + n*pi` where `n \in ZZ`
