You can put this solution on YOUR website!
tan(x + 450) = sin(x + 450) / cos(x + 450) = sin(x + 90) / cos(x + 90) =
\n" ); document.write( "[sin x cos 90 + sin 90 cos x] / [cos x cos 90 - sin x sin 90] =
\n" ); document.write( "cos x / -sin x =
\n" ); document.write( "- cot x
\n" ); document.write( "
