Tan (Tangent)

This function takes the value of an angle in radians and returns the tangent of the angle.

In a given right triangle containing an angle A, there are three sides: the side opposite to A, the side adjacent to A, and the side opposite to the right angle (hypotenuse). The tangent of A is the ratio of the lengths of the opposite side over the adjacent side.

To convert degrees to radians, multiply by p/180. This is a single-value function.
