Question

Use a calculator to find the approximate value of each expression rounded to two decimal places:$\tan 1$

Short answer

The approximate value of the trigonometric expression$\tan 1$is$1.56$

Step-by-step solution

Step 1. Given information 

We are given a trigonometric expression$\tan 1$.

We have to use the calculator to find the approximate value of the above expression and round it off to two decimal places.

Step 2.  Concept 

While using the calculator to find the values of trigonometric expression, set the calculator to the correct MODE depending on whether you are entering the angle using degree or radian.

Step 3. Finding the approximate value of the given expression  

The given trigonometric expression is, $\tan 1$.

We will first set the MODE in the calculator to receive radians.

After this, we will enter the trigonometric expression $\tan 1$.

The approximate value of the expression that is rounded off to two decimal places is $1.56$.

Therefore,$\tan 1\approx 1.56$

Step 4. Final Answer

The approximate value of the expression$\tan 1$is$1.56$
