Question 1041264: The graph of y=√3x is shown in the xy-plane( http://i.imgur.com/ovtZqsA.jpg ). what is the measure, in radians, of angle POR?
A) π/6
B) π/4
C) π/3
D) π/2 Answer by rothauserc(4718) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! If you mean f(x) = square root(3) * x, then
:
tangent of angle POR = square root(3)
:
note that the slope of a line is rise(y) over the run(x)
:
tangent inverse of square root(3) is 59.97 degrees approx 60 degrees
:
note to convert an angle in degrees to radians multiply it by pi/180
:
60 * pi/180 = pi/3
:
*****************
answer is C) pi/3
