The ratio of sine and cosine.
In mathematics, "tan" refers to the tangent function, which calculates the ratio of the opposite side to the adjacent side in a right triangle for a given angle. On the other hand, "tan⁻¹" (or arctan) is the inverse tangent function, which takes a ratio and returns the angle whose tangent is that ratio. Essentially, while tan gives you the tangent of an angle, tan⁻¹ helps you find the angle when you know the tangent value.
Yes, the tangent function is periodic.
Tangent is the ratio between perpendicular to the base of the triangle.
It is a ratio of 0.4877 : nothing else.
The inverse tangent, denoted as arctan or tan^(-1), of 1.4737 is approximately 56.05 degrees when measured in degrees or approximately 0.980 radians when measured in radians. This value represents the angle whose tangent is 1.4737. In trigonometry, the inverse tangent function helps determine the angle when the tangent ratio is known.

tan (0) = opposite/adjacent
In a right angled triangle, it is the ratio of the lengths of the side opposite to the angle and the side adjacent to the angle.Of course, this definition restricts the function to (0, 90) degrees whereas the tangent function is defined for all real numbers.
of what?
Yes, the tangent function is periodic.
The tangent ratio for a right angle triangle is opposite/adjacent.
The tangent ratio can take any real value.
The slope of a line and the tangent of the angle between the positive x-axis and the line are related because the tangent of the angle is defined as the ratio of the y-coordinate and the x-coordinate of some point on the line.
In the context of special relativity, the hyperbolic tangent function is used to calculate the ratio of velocity to the speed of light. This function helps to describe how an object's velocity changes as it approaches the speed of light, which is a key concept in understanding the effects of relativity on motion.
The tangent is the ratio of sine over cosine; also, in a unit circle, Y over X.
