The tangent of an angle can be found using the unit circle or trigonometric identities. For the angle of 300°, we can relate it to a more familiar angle.

Identifying the Reference Angle

The angle 300° is in the fourth quadrant. To find the reference angle, subtract 300° from 360°:

  • 360° - 300° = 60°

Calculating the Tangent

The tangent function is negative in the fourth quadrant. Therefore, we have:

  • tan(300°) = -tan(60°)

Value of tan(60°)

We know that:

  • tan(60°) = √3
Final Result

Putting it all together, we find:

  • tan(300°) = -√3

Thus, the value of tan 300° is -√3.
