Simplify (sin(theta))/(cos(theta))

Problem

sin(θ)/cos(θ)

Solution

1. Identify the trigonometric identity for the ratio of the sine function to the cosine function.

2. Apply the identity which states that the tangent of an angle is equal to the sine of that angle divided by the cosine of that angle.

3. Substitute the expression with its equivalent trigonometric function.

Final Answer

sin(θ)/cos(θ)=tan(θ)
