Question

Use the sum identity for tangent to find the exact value of tan((17π)/12).

Part I: Find two common angles that sum to ((17π)/12).
Part II: Evaluate the expression using the sum identity for tangent.

Answer 1

Part I: Is this correct? \[\frac{ 17π }{ 12 }=\frac{ 3060º }{ 12 }\]\[= 255° \]

Answer 2

Part II:
\[2 + √3\]
