$\tan (π + x)$

Step 1

Apply the sum of angles identity.

$\frac{\tan (π) + \tan (x)}{1 - \tan (π) \tan (x)}$

Step 2

Simplify the numerator.

Step 2.1

Apply the reference angle by finding the angle with equivalent trig values in the first quadrant. Make the expression negative because tangent is negative in the second quadrant.

$\frac{- \tan (0) + \tan (x)}{1 - \tan (π) \tan (x)}$

Step 2.2

The exact value of $\tan (0)$ is $0$ .

$\frac{- 0 + \tan (x)}{1 - \tan (π) \tan (x)}$

Step 2.3

Multiply $- 1$ by $0$ .

$\frac{0 + \tan (x)}{1 - \tan (π) \tan (x)}$

Step 2.4

Add $0$ and $\tan (x)$ .

$\frac{\tan (x)}{1 - \tan (π) \tan (x)}$

Step 3

Simplify the denominator.

Step 3.1

Apply the reference angle by finding the angle with equivalent trig values in the first quadrant. Make the expression negative because tangent is negative in the second quadrant.

$\frac{\tan (x)}{1 - - \tan (0) \tan (x)}$

Step 3.2

The exact value of $\tan (0)$ is $0$ .

$\frac{\tan (x)}{1 - - 0 \tan (x)}$

Step 3.3

Multiply $- - 0$ .

Step 3.3.1

Multiply $- 1$ by $0$ .

$\frac{\tan (x)}{1 - 0 \tan (x)}$

Step 3.3.2

Multiply $- 1$ by $0$ .

$\frac{\tan (x)}{1 + 0 \tan (x)}$

Step 3.4

Multiply $0$ by $\tan (x)$ .

$\frac{\tan (x)}{1 + 0}$

Step 3.5

Add $1$ and $0$ .

$\frac{\tan (x)}{1}$

Step 4

Divide $\tan (x)$ by $1$ .
