Still trying to figure this one out Lizzie May?

OpenStudy (liziekay):

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Mmm yes good :)

zepdrix (zepdrix):

\[\large\rm (\tan45+\tan60)^2=(1+\sqrt3)^2\]

OpenStudy (liziekay):

yes exactly

zepdrix (zepdrix):

And I guess they want you to expand out the square from that point.

OpenStudy (liziekay):

so 4+2 radical 3 then..

zepdrix (zepdrix):
