Step 2.4.16.4.4.1

Factor $2$ out of $2$ .

$\frac{\tan (\frac{7 π}{24}) - \sqrt{3 - 2 \sqrt{2}}}{1 + \tan (\frac{7 π}{24}) \sqrt{2 - \sqrt{2} - \frac{2 (\sqrt{2} - 1)}{2 (1)}}}$

Step 2.4.16.4.4.2

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{\tan (\frac{7 π}{24}) - \sqrt{3 - 2 \sqrt{2}}}{1 + \tan (\frac{7 π}{24}) \sqrt{2 - \sqrt{2} - \frac{2 (\sqrt{2} - 1)}{2 \cdot 1}}}$

Step 2.4.16.4.4.3

Rewrite the expression.

$\frac{\tan (\frac{7 π}{24}) - \sqrt{3 - 2 \sqrt{2}}}{1 + \tan (\frac{7 π}{24}) \sqrt{2 - \sqrt{2} - \frac{\sqrt{2} - 1}{1}}}$

Step 2.4.16.4.4.4

Divide $\sqrt{2} - 1$ by $1$ .

$\frac{\tan (\frac{7 π}{24}) - \sqrt{3 - 2 \sqrt{2}}}{1 + \tan (\frac{7 π}{24}) \sqrt{2 - \sqrt{2} - (\sqrt{2} - 1)}}$

Step 2.4.16.5

Apply the distributive property.

$\frac{\tan (\frac{7 π}{24}) - \sqrt{3 - 2 \sqrt{2}}}{1 + \tan (\frac{7 π}{24}) \sqrt{2 - \sqrt{2} - \sqrt{2} - - 1}}$

Step 2.4.16.6

Multiply $- 1$ by $- 1$ .

$\frac{\tan (\frac{7 π}{24}) - \sqrt{3 - 2 \sqrt{2}}}{1 + \tan (\frac{7 π}{24}) \sqrt{2 - \sqrt{2} - \sqrt{2} + 1}}$

Step 2.4.17

Add $2$ and $1$ .

$\frac{\tan (\frac{7 π}{24}) - \sqrt{3 - 2 \sqrt{2}}}{1 + \tan (\frac{7 π}{24}) \sqrt{3 - \sqrt{2} - \sqrt{2}}}$

Step 2.4.18

Subtract $\sqrt{2}$ from $- \sqrt{2}$ .

$\frac{\tan (\frac{7 π}{24}) - \sqrt{3 - 2 \sqrt{2}}}{1 + \tan (\frac{7 π}{24}) \sqrt{3 - 2 \sqrt{2}}}$
