Answer:

$a + b + c = \pi \\ = > c= \pi - a - b \\ < = > \tan(c) = \tan(\pi - a - b) = -\tan(a + b)$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have:

$\tan(a) + \tan(b) + \tan(c) \\ = \tan(a) + \tan(b) - \tan(a + b) \\ = \tan( a) + \tan(b) - \frac{ \tan(a) + \tan(b) }{1 - \tan(a) \tan(b) } \\ = \frac{ ( \tan(a) + \tan(b) ) \tan(a) \tan(b) }{ \tan(a) \tan(b) - 1 } (1)$

we also have:

$\tan(a) \tan(b) \tan(c) \\ = - \tan(a) \tan(b) \tan(a + b) \\ = \frac{ -(\tan( a ) + \tan(b) ) \tan(a) \tan(b) }{1 - \tan(a) \tan(b) } \\ = \frac{( \tan(a) + \tan(b)) \tan(a) \tan(b) }{ \tan(a) \tan(b) - 1 } (2)$
