Simplify tan(17)
Problem
Solution
Identify the expression as the tangent of an angle measured in degrees.
Determine if the angle is a standard reference angle (such as
0 30 45 60 or90 .Conclude that since
17 is not a standard angle and cannot be easily expressed using sum, difference, or half-angle identities of standard angles, the expression is already in its simplest exact trigonometric form.
