<p>The Frontier State makes its introduction with mathematically significant roadsigns with this sign found by <strong>David Slauenwhite</strong>. In addition to being an interesting mathematical sign, notice that all the cities on the sign start with C. <a href="/category/26.aspx" title="See signs from Alaska!">Alaska</a> is no place to travel with a low tank of gas!</p>
<p align="center"><img src="/wp-content/uploads/import/signs/2005/20050712-TrigonometryInAlaska.jpg" border="0" height="253" width="350" /></p>
<p align="left">A sign with a city named Circle in it is so enticing to try to get 360 or another number that is relevant to a circle but it wasn&#8217;t meant to be. However, the answer was still found in trigonometry.</p>
<p class="math">\tan ( 152 &#8211; 17 )^\circ = 117 &#8211; 118</p>
<p align="left">This sign is found at the very beginning of Highway 6 in <a href="/category/26.aspx" title="See signs from Alaska!">Alaska</a> leaving the city Fox. The GPS coordinates are approximately N64 57 33.4 W147 37 01.8. <a href="http://www.roadsignmath.com/map/map.asp?id=38">See sign on map!</a></p>
