Tangent = sine/cosine provided that cosine is non-zero. When cosine is 0, then tangent is undefined.

How is tangent defined?

The tangent of an angle theta is defined as sine(theta) divided by cosine(theta). Since the sine and cosine are Y and X on the unit circle, then tangent(theta) is Y divided by X. The tangent of a function at a point is the line going through that point which has slope equal to the first deriviative of the function at that point.
