We have to prove that the tangent is an odd function.

If the tangent is an odd function, the following condition should be satisfied:

\tan(t)=-\tan(-t)

From the figure we can see that the tangent can be expressed as:

We can start then from tan(t) and will try to arrive to -tan(-t):

\begin{gathered} \tan(t)=\frac{\sin(t)}{cos(t)}=\frac{y}{x} \\ \tan(t)=\frac{-(-y)}{x}=\frac{-\sin(-t)}{\cos(-t)} \\ \tan(t)=-\frac{\sin(-t)}{\cos(-t)} \\ \tan(t)=-\tan(-t) \end{gathered}

We have arrived to the condition for odd functions, so we have just proved that the tangent function is an odd function.

Answer:

Well, at least you improved.  But maybe you should use another source besides brainly for your tests.  Sometimes people put the wrong answers just to get points.

I hope you do better next time!  Good luck!!
