Tan 74 Degrees
Sin, Cos, Tan, Cot of an Angle
What is tan 74°?
Answer
tan 74° ≈
3.4874
Angle in radians: 74° = 37π/90. The point of the angle is in quadrant I, where tangent is positive.
≈ — rounded to 4 decimal places. tan 74° can't be written with square roots: 74° is not a multiple of 3°.
tan 74° = sin 74° / cos 74° ≈ 3.4874
P(cos 74°, sin 74°) ≈ (0.2756, 0.9613)
T(1, tan 74°) ≈ (1, 3.4874) — where line OP meets the line x = 1; T is beyond the drawing, the arrow points to it.

FAQ
What is tan 74°?
tan 74° ≈ 3.4874
Why does tan 74° 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°. 74° is not, so no such exact form exists; the value is used as a decimal: tan 74° ≈ 3.4874.
Why does a calculator show −5.7370 for tan 74?
The calculator is in radian mode (RAD): it takes tan 74 as the tangent of 74 radians, tan 74 rad ≈ −5.7370. Switch it to degrees (DEG): tan 74° ≈ 3.4874. In radians the value is never undefined: π is irrational, so a whole number of radians never lands exactly on an axis.
