in xy coordinate system the direction is usually represented by tanget its just becoz of tht the ratio of tangent is from perpendicular to base so it involves both of the related components
The tangent function will generate a calculator "math error" if the angle in questin is ±90 degrees. For these angles, the tangent function is not defined.
Because a vector contains information about the direction. A direction, at any particular position is the tangent to the curve and this, by definition, must be straight.
A common tangent is a line which is tangent to two (or more) curves.
tangent(450) = 0.935809013
Tangent 39 = 0.809784033195
yes,the direction of electric force on a charge is tangent of field lines.
When an object is in orbit of another, its direction can be determined by drawing a tangent along its orbit.
The tangent function will generate a calculator "math error" if the angle in questin is ±90 degrees. For these angles, the tangent function is not defined.
No. The "resultant vector" will be in rectangular coordinates (x and y coordinates). You indeed use the Pythagorean theorem to calculate its magnitude. For the direction, however, you use the arc-tangent of (y / x). Since different angles have the same tangent, you also have to take into account the quadrant of the angle. For example, if both x and y are negative, then you have to add 180 degrees (or pi radians) to the angle which your calculator gives you. You can save yourself all this trouble by using the rectangular-to-polar conversion, available on most scientific calculators. Check your calculator's manual for details.

Tangent:In geometry, the tangent line (or simply the tangent) is a curve at a given point and is the straight line that "just touches" the curve at that point. As it passes through the point where the tangent line and the curve meet the tangent line is "going in the same direction" as the curve, and in this sense it is the best straight-line approximation to the curve at that point.Chord:A chord of a curve is a geometric line segment whose endpoints both lie on the outside of the circle.
it measures the magnitude of acceleration, but it can't tell you the direction of the acceleration.
It will measure acceleration in the direction towards or away from the origin.
Velocity is a vector; having direction. So, when changing direction constatly to have velocity a tangent can be drawn to the constantly changing path of the object having velocity.
Yes. Slope = rise/run (or in calculus, the derivative, often denoted dy/dx). A slope of zero indicates there is no rise, i.e., a horizontal line (or in the case of a curve, the tangent line at a given point is horizontal).
A common tangent is a line which is tangent to two (or more) curves.
To calculate the beam spread angle in a rectangular beam transducer probe, you can use trigonometry. The beam spread angle can be calculated using the dimensions of the probe, usually the width and height of the rectangular aperture. You can use trigonometric functions like tangent or arcsine to determine the angle of beam spread based on the dimensions of the probe.
