im having difficulty with this question

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

hint: use this identity \[\Large \tan(x-y)=\frac{\tan(x)-\tan(y)}{1+\tan(x)\tan(y)}\]

Both planets and stars can be seen in the night sky. What is the main difference in the light we see from the planets and the light we see from the stars? A. The light from the planets is reflected light from the Sun and the light from the stars is actually produced by the stars. B. The light from the stars is reflected light from the Sun and the light from the planets is actually produced by the planets. C. There is no difference in the light from the stars and the planets. The planets and stars both produce their own light. D. There is no difference in the light from the stars and the planets. The planets and stars both reflect light from the Sun.

oh ok, so you just solve for the bracket inside right?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

in this case, x = 170 y = 110

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so it'll be tan (60)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok now i just use special angles, ty man

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yes, then evaluate that

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yw

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

btw that identity (along with tons of others) was found here http://www.sosmath.com/trig/Trig5/trig5/trig5.html
