Tan 1 Degree
Sin, Cos, Tan, Cot of an Angle
What is tan 1°?
Answer
tan 1° ≈
0.0175
Angle in radians: 1° = π/180. The point of the angle is in quadrant I, where tangent is positive.
≈ — rounded to 4 decimal places. tan 1° can't be written with square roots: 1° is not a multiple of 3°.
tan 1° = sin 1° / cos 1° ≈ 0.0175
P(cos 1°, sin 1°) ≈ (0.9998, 0.0175)
T(1, tan 1°) ≈ (1, 0.0175) — where line OP meets the line x = 1.

FAQ
What is tan 1°?
tan 1° ≈ 0.0175
Why does tan 1° have no exact value?
A trigonometric value of a whole number of degrees can be written with square roots only when the angle is a multiple of 3°. 1° is not, so no such exact form exists; the value is used as a decimal: tan 1° ≈ 0.0175.
Why does a calculator show 1.5574 for tan 1?
The calculator is in radian mode (RAD): it takes tan 1 as the tangent of 1 radian, tan 1 rad ≈ 1.5574. Switch it to degrees (DEG): tan 1° ≈ 0.0175. In radians the value is never undefined: π is irrational, so a whole number of radians never lands exactly on an axis.
