Question 819659: I'm not really understanding using the Sum and Difference Formulas to find Exact values. Maybe I just need some more in depth explanation of how it works but I'm having a hard time finding the exact value of expression of Tan(105)-tan(-15)/1+Tan(105)Tan(-15) Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Ans:
Since tan(A-B) = [tan(A)-tan(B)]/[1+tan(A)tan(B)]
----
the exact value of the expression
[Tan(105)-tan(-15)]/[1+Tan(105)Tan(-15)]
is tan[105-(-15)]
= tan[120)
