t is the tensile stress right? and which do you use in the equation A = 5/4 t2 tan(54 degree)? 400 or 400,000,000. and sorry if i sound dumb, im not very good at math

"The cross area can be calculated by the following equation:
A = 5/4 t2 tan(54 degree)"
I calculated 5/4 t2 but I don't get where tan(54 degree) comes in?
