tan((29pi)/6)

tan (\frac{29 π}{6})

- \frac{3}{3}

Decimal Notation

- 0.57735 \dots

Solution steps

tan (\frac{29 π}{6})

tan (\frac{29 π}{6}) = tan (\frac{5 π}{6})

tan (\frac{29 π}{6})

Rewrite

\frac{29 π}{6}

π \cdot 4 + \frac{5 π}{6}

= tan (π 4 + \frac{5 π}{6})

Apply the periodicity of

tan

tan (x + π \cdot k) = tan (x)

tan (π \cdot 4 + \frac{5 π}{6}) = tan (\frac{5 π}{6})

= tan (\frac{5 π}{6})

= tan (\frac{5 π}{6})

Rewrite using trig identities:

\frac{sin ( \frac{5 π}{6} )}{cos ( \frac{5 π}{6} )}

tan (\frac{5 π}{6})

Use the basic trigonometric identity:

tan (x) = \frac{sin ( x )}{cos ( x )}

= \frac{sin ( \frac{5 π}{6} )}{cos ( \frac{5 π}{6} )}

= \frac{sin ( \frac{5 π}{6} )}{cos ( \frac{5 π}{6} )}

Use the following trivial identity:

sin (\frac{5 π}{6}) = \frac{1}{2}

sin (\frac{5 π}{6})

sin (x)

= \frac{1}{2}

Use the following trivial identity:

cos (\frac{5 π}{6}) = - \frac{3}{2}

cos (\frac{5 π}{6})

= - \frac{3}{2}

= \frac{\frac{1}{2}}{- \frac{3}{2}}

Simplify

\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{- \frac{3}{2}} : - \frac{3}{3}

\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{- \frac{3}{2}}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{a}{- b} = - \frac{a}{b}

= - \frac{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{3}{2}}

Divide fractions:

\frac{\frac{a}{b}}{\frac{c}{d}} = \frac{a \cdot d}{b \cdot c}

= - \frac{1 \cdot 2}{2 3}

Refine

= - \frac{2}{2 3}

Cancel the common factor:

2

= - \frac{1}{3}

Rationalize

- \frac{1}{3} : - \frac{3}{3}

- \frac{1}{3}

Multiply by the conjugate

\frac{3}{3}

= - \frac{1 \cdot 3}{3 3}

1 \cdot 3 = 3

33 = 3

33

Apply radical rule:

a a = a

33 = 3

= 3

= - \frac{3}{3}

= - \frac{3}{3}

= - \frac{3}{3}
