Hint: Use the identity \[\Large \tan(A+B) = \frac{\tan(A)+\tan(B)}{1-\tan(A)\tan(B)}\] btw, I'm looking up identities here: http://www.sosmath.com/trig/Trig5/trig5/trig5.html
the above angle sum formula is exactly what you need?
Well I just the second step as shown in the image attached. @agentc0re
*I just need
@jim_thompson5910 Thank you for the link!
You're welcome Compare the identity \[\Large \tan(A+B) = \frac{\tan(A)+\tan(B)}{1-\tan(A)\tan(B)}\] with \[\Large \frac{\tan(24)+\tan(21)}{1-\tan(24)\tan(21)}\] So we can see A = 24 and B = 21. I'm sure you know what to do from here.
well you find the value from the first step.. That value is Equal to 1 divided by the first step. make sense?
So a.?
no
if you type choice A into a calculator, and you compare that with what you get when you type in the original expression into a calculator, you'll see that the two are NOT the same
oh wait, in this special case, they are the same...oh well, nvm that last comment But in general, they won't be
ex: if it were 24 and 22, then it would be different
Oh I see
c.!
They match!
you nailed it
Great job! :D
AWESOME! Thanks!
