Prove that: tan3Atan2AtanA=tan3A−tan2A−tanA


Open in App
Solution

Determine the proof of the given expression tan3Atan2AtanA=tan3A−tan2A−tanA

Solve the L.H.S part:

Since we know that 3A=2A+A............................(i)
taking the tan both sides of the above equation.
tan3A=tan(2A+A)⇒tan3A=tan2A+tanA(1-tan2A.tanA)⇒tan3A(1-tan2AtanA)=tan2A+tanA⇒tan3A-tan3Atan2AtanA=tan2A+tanA⇒tan3A-tan2A-tanA=tan3Atan2AtanA
Hence, the L.H.S = R.H.S.
