rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

tan is always 0 unless its on the y axis?

satellite73 (satellite73):

you are here |dw:1463972231207:dw|

satellite73 (satellite73):

no tangent is not always anything it is a function

satellite73 (satellite73):

it is \[\tan(x)=\frac{\sin(x)}{\cos(x)}\]

satellite73 (satellite73):

so for example \[\tan(\frac{\pi}{3})=\frac{\sin(\frac{\pi}{3})}{\cos(\frac{\pi}{3})}\]

satellite73 (satellite73):

yes right , sine over cosine y over x

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

but sometimes r isnt 1

satellite73 (satellite73):

on the unit circle r is one

satellite73 (satellite73):

and for tangent, it makes no difference

satellite73 (satellite73):

that might have confused you so ignore it

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

A bit. But overall i think i got it. Thankssss
