eexplain why the value of tan theta increases as the measure of theta increses?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Tan theta is the opposite over the adjacent sides in a triangle|dw:1358386667290:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if we increase the angle theta then the opposite side length increases, so tan theta increases|dw:1358386768774:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

here doubleing the angle is the same as putting two identical triangles together but flipped. This means that 2 x angle = 2 x opposite side length.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so a bigger theta means a bigger tan theta
