Doesn't even make sense. Radians is the angular measure of arc length/radius. Tangent is the measure of the ratio between the perpendicular length to the horizontal length. How can those be the same?

Nevermind my stupid mind...

 

The value of tangent repeats every pi. So the next angle is 5.6rad + pi, the next: 5.6 + 2pi, and the 3rd: 5.6rad + 3pi

Thanks man! I'm really desperate. Folks at r/cheatatmathhomework are busy, LTT was my last stop haha.

I have this question, Find three other angles which have the same tangent as 5.6 radians? 

Oh you forgot to mention whether the rotation is positive or negative. If it is negative rotation, it'll be 5.6-pi, 5.6-2pi, 5.6-3pi
