Download Solution PDFFormula used:
tan 3x = (3tan x - tan3x) / (1 - 3tan2x)
Calculation:
Given that
tan x = 1,
we can substitute this value into the formula:
tan 3x = (3tan x - tan3x) / (1 - 3tan2x)
⇒ tan 3x = [(3 × 1 - (1)3] / [1 - 3 × (1)2]
⇒ tan 3x = (3 - 1) / (1 - 3)
⇒ tan 3x = -1
Therefore, the value of tan 3x is -1.
