On the unit circle at 90 degrees the 90 degrees in radians is pi/2 and the coordinates for this are: (0,1).
The tan function = sin/cos. In the coordinate system x is cos and y is sin.
Therefore (0,1) ; cos=0, & sin=1 . Tan=sin/cos so tan of 90 degrees = 1/0.
The answer of tan(90) = undefined. There can not be a 0 in the denominator, because you can't devide by something with no quantity.
Something with no quantity is 0.
Or, on a limits point of view, it would be infinity.

Hunter in a tree 90 ft above the ground see 2 deer. 1 is due west at at angle of depression 34 degrees and other due east at angle depression 58 degrees how far part to nearest whole number are they?
West. tan theta = opposite/adjacent you have opposite, 90 feet, you want adjacent ( degree mode) tan 34 degrees = 90 feet/adj. adjacent = 90 feet/tan 34 degrees = 133.4 feet ------------------------same for east tan 58 degrees = 90 feet/adj. adjacent = 90 feet/tan 58 degrees = 56.2 feet ------------------- 133.4 feet + 56.2 feet = 190 feet is the distance 2 deer are apart
What is wrong with the following statement tan 90 degrees equals 1 overcot 90 degrees?
Cot(90) = 0 so 1/cot(90), if defined, would be 1/0. Such a fraction is not defined and that is what is wrong with the sentence.
How many degrees is a right angle?
90 degreesThere are 90 degrees in a right angle.There are 90 degrees in a right angle
What is the value of the tan of 61 degrees?
tan(61°) = 1.80405 (rounded)
