tan(arccos((-12)/(13)))

tan (arccos (\frac{- 12}{13}))

- \frac{5}{12}

Solution steps

tan (arccos (\frac{- 12}{13}))

Rewrite using trig identities:

tan (arccos (\frac{- 12}{13})) = \frac{1 - ( \frac{- 12}{13} ) ^{2}}{( \frac{- 12}{13} )}

= \frac{1 - ( \frac{- 12}{13} ) ^{2}}{\frac{- 12}{13}}

Simplify

= - \frac{5}{12}

- π sin (2 π)

\frac{sin ( 4 0 ^{\circ} )}{sin ( 2 5 ^{\circ} )}

cos (\frac{π}{2} 2)

50 sin (1 0^{\circ})

arcsin (\frac{25}{45})
