tan%28theta%29+=+sqrt%287%29

1%2Ftan%28theta%29+=+1%2Fsqrt%287%29

cot%28theta%29+=+1%2Fsqrt%287%29

cot%28theta%29+=+%281%2Fsqrt%287%29%29%2A%28sqrt%287%29%2Fsqrt%287%29%29

cot%28theta%29+=+%281%2Asqrt%287%29%29%2F%28sqrt%287%29%2Asqrt%287%29%29

cot%28theta%29+=+%28sqrt%287%29%29%2F%287%29

Rationalizing the denominator may be optional depending on your teacher/textbook.
