Frequency = 1%2F%28period%29
--------------------------------------
Period of y = tan(pi%2F3x) 
--------------------------------------
period of y = A·tan(Bx) is pi÷B
--------------------------------------
So the period of y = tan(pi%2F3x) is pi÷pi%2F3 = pi·3%2Fpi = cross%28pi%29·3%2Fcross%28pi%29 = 3
--------------------------------------\
frequency = 1%2F%28period%29 = 1%2F3
