Question

Tangent theta is undefined for theta equals

Answer 1

Answer:

The values of theta where cos(theta) is 0 is equal to π/2 or 3π/2 so, the value of tan(theta) will be zero.

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know,

tan(theta) = sin(theta)/ cos(theta)

tan(theta) will be undefined whenever cos(theta) = 0

as anything divided by zero is undefined.

We need to find the values of theta where cos(theta) is 0.

cos(0) = 1

cos (π/2) = 0

cos(π) = 1

cos(3π/2) = 0

The values of theta where cos(theta) is 0 is equal to π/2 or 3π/2 so, the value of tan(theta) will be zero.
