Question

If tan A = 4/3 and sin B = 45/53 and angles A and B are in Quadrant I, find the value of tan(A+B)

Answer 1

Answer:

First, find tan A and tan B.

cosA=35 --> sin2A=1−925=1625 --> cosA=±45

cosA=45 because A is in Quadrant I

tanA=sinAcosA=(45)(53)=43.

sinB=513 --> cos2B=1−25169=144169 --> sinB=±1213.

sinB=1213 because B is in Quadrant I

tanB=sinBcosB=(513)(1312)=512

Apply the trig identity:

tan(A−B)=tanA−tanB1−tanA.tanB

tanA−tanB=43−512=1112

(1−tanA.tanB)=1−2036=1636=49

tan(A−B)=(1112)(94)=3316
