Use this Trig Property:
tan%28A%29=sin%28A%29%2Fcos%28A%29
------------
cos%28A%29=2sin%28A%29
1=2sin%28A%29%2Fcos%28A%29
sin%28A%29%2Fcos%28A%29=1%2F2
highlight%28tan%28A%29=1%2F2%29
-------------
Use this Trig Property:
cot%28A%29=1%2Ftan%28A%29
-------------
cot%28A%29=1%2F%281%2F2%29
highlight%28cot%28A%29=2%29
