Tan 69 Degrees
Sin, Cos, Tan, Cot of an Angle
What is tan 69°?
Answer
tan 69° ≈
2.6051
Angle in radians: 69° = 23π/60. The point of the angle is in quadrant I, where tangent is positive.
≈ — rounded to 4 decimal places. An exact form of tan 69° in square roots exists, but it is unwieldy — nested radicals.
tan 69° = sin 69° / cos 69° ≈ 2.6051
P(cos 69°, sin 69°) ≈ (0.3584, 0.9336)
T(1, tan 69°) ≈ (1, 2.6051) — where line OP meets the line x = 1; T is beyond the drawing, the arrow points to it.

FAQ
What is tan 69°?
tan 69° ≈ 2.6051
Is there an exact value of tan 69°?
Yes: 69° is a multiple of 3°, and the values of such angles can be written with square roots — but the expression is unwieldy, with nested radicals built from the values of 18° and 15° (3° = 18° − 15°). In practice the decimal is used: tan 69° ≈ 2.6051.
Why does a calculator show −0.1155 for tan 69?
The calculator is in radian mode (RAD): it takes tan 69 as the tangent of 69 radians, tan 69 rad ≈ −0.1155. Switch it to degrees (DEG): tan 69° ≈ 2.6051. In radians the value is never undefined: π is irrational, so a whole number of radians never lands exactly on an axis.
