Exercise 4 Page 923

We can use a calculator to find the degree of an angle with a given trigonometric ratio. To do so, we first push the 2ND button. Then, we push the SIN, COS, or TAN button.

36.9^(∘)

Practice makes perfect
We can use a calculator to find the degree of an angle with a given trigonometric ratio. To do so, we first push the 2ND button. Then, we push either the SIN, COS, or TAN button. Make sure that your calculator is in degrees mode!
Now we can round the result to the nearest tenth of a degree.
sin^(-1)(0.6)=36.869897...^(∘)
sin^(-1)(0.6)=36.9^(∘)
