What is Meant by the Tangent?

In mathematics, trigonometry is a branch that deals with the study of sides and angles of the right triangle. Based on the sides and angles, the six important trigonometric functions are classified. They are sine, cosine, tangent, cosecant, secant, cotangent. The tangent function is defined as the ratio of the length of the opposite side to the length of the adjacent side. The tangent angle can be measured in terms of both the degrees and radians. Hence, the formula to calculate the tangent function is defined by

Tan θ = Opposite Side/ Adjacent Side
