a whole number
an integer
a multiple of 10
a multiple of 45

Explanation:

Step1: Find the reference angle

We know that if \(\tan\theta = 1.99\), then \(\theta=\arctan(1.99)\). Using a calculator, \(\arctan(1.99)\approx63.3^{\circ}\)

Step2: Determine the general form of the tangent function

The tangent function \(y = \tan x\) has a period of \(180^{\circ}\). The general solution for \(\tan\theta=\tan\alpha\) is \(\theta=\alpha + k\cdot180^{\circ}\), where \(k\in\mathbb{Z}\) ( \(k\) is an integer)

Answer:

  1. \(63.3\)
  2. \(180\)
  3. an integer
