    The value of tan (13π/12)is:
    Question

    The value of tan (13π/12)is:

    A.

    3-√3

    B.

    2+√3

    C.

    4-√3

    D.

    2- √3

    Correct option is D

    Given:
    tan(13π12)\tan \left( \frac{13\pi}{12} \right)​​

    Solution:

    tan(13π12) =tan(π+π12) =tan(π12) =tan(15) =tan(4530) =tan45tan301+tan45×tan30 =1131+1×13 =313+1×3131 =23\tan \left( \frac{13\pi}{12} \right)\\\ \\= \tan \left( \pi + \frac{\pi}{12} \right)\\\ \\= \tan \left( \frac{\pi}{12} \right)\\\ \\= \tan (15^\circ)\\\ \\= \tan (45^\circ - 30^\circ)\\\ \\= \frac{\tan 45^\circ - \tan 30^\circ}{1 + \tan 45^\circ \times \tan 30^\circ}\\\ \\= \frac{1 - \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}}{1 + 1 \times \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}}\\\ \\= \frac{\sqrt{3} - 1}{\sqrt{3} + 1} \times \frac{\sqrt{3} - 1}{\sqrt{3} - 1}\\\ \\= 2 - \sqrt{3}​​

    Thus, the required value is 23.2 - \sqrt{3} .​​
