tan 60°
√3
The value of tan 60° is (√3)/1 or simply √3.
Explanation:
The tangent function is defined as the ratio of the opposite side to the adjacent side of a right-angled triangle. In the case of a 60° angle, if the adjacent side is considered to be 1 unit, then the opposite side to the angle will be equal to √3 units (using Pythagoras theorem).
Therefore, tan 60° = Opposite/Adjacent = (√3)/1 = √3.
