Simplify tan(- square root of 3)

Problem

tan(−√(,3))

Solution

1. Identify the expression as the tangent of a negative value, where the angle is −√(,3) radians.

2. Apply the odd function property of the tangent function, which states that tan(−x)=−tan(x)

3. Rewrite the expression using this property to move the negative sign outside the function.

4. Conclude that the expression is simplified by expressing it in terms of the tangent of a positive value.

Final Answer

tan(−√(,3))=−tan(√(,3))
