Answer

(i) Given,

tan 24° 24′

⇒ tan 24° 24′

From table we have,

tan 24° 24′ = 0.4536

Mean difference of 0′ = 0.0000

Therefore,

tan 24° 24′ = 0.4536

Hence, tan 24° 24′ = 0.4536.

(ii) Given,

tan 9° 38′

⇒ tan 9° 36′ + 2'

From table we have,

tan 9° 36′ = 0.1691

Mean difference of 2′ = 0.0006 (to be added)

Therefore,

tan 9° 38′ = 0.1691 + 0.0006 = 0.1697

Hence, tan 9° 38′ = 0.1697.

(iii) Given,

tan 31° 27′

⇒ tan 31° 24′ + 3'

From table we have,

tan 31° 24′ = 0.6104

Mean difference of 3′ = 0.0012 (to be added)

Therefore,

tan 31° 27′ = 0.6104 + 0.0012 = 0.6116

Hence, tan 31° 27′ = 0.6116.

(iv) Given,

tan 65° 50′

⇒ tan 65° 48′ + 2'

From table we have,

tan 65° 48′ = 2.2251

Mean difference of 2′ = 0.0034 (to be added)

Therefore,

tan 65° 50′ = 2.2251 + 0.0034 = 2.2285

Hence, tan 65° 50′ = 2.2285.
