Question

If the tangent value is 33*, the cotangent value to the hundredths degree is: 0.65 0.649 1.54 1.540

Answer 1

1.54

Explanation:

The cotangent value is referred to as the reciprocal or the opposite of a given tangent value. Cotangent is also referred to as it's short form called cot

Mathematically, Cotangent (cot) = 1/tan

In the above question, we are given a value where:

tan = 33°

Cotangent (cot) = 1/tan 33°

Cotangent (cot) = 1.5398649638

We are told to approximate to the nearest hundredth

= 1.54
