tan(4θ) + tan(2θ)
-------------------
1 - tan(4θ)tan(2θ)
Recall the identity
Observe that your expression is the same as the right side
of that identity, where a = 4q and b = 2q
Therefore, if you substitute those into that identity, you get
The right side is exactly your expression, so the answer is the
left side
tan(4q + 2q)
which is
tan(6q)
