tan() function in R Language is used to calculate the tangent of the numeric value passed to it as argument.

Syntax: tan(x)

Parameter:
x: Numeric value

Example 1:

# R code to calculate tangent of a value

# Assigning values to variables
x1 <- -90
x2 <- -30

# Using tan() Function
tan(x1)
tan(x2)

Output:

[1] 1.9952
[1] 6.405331

Example 2:

# R code to calculate tangent of a value

# Assigning values to variables
x1 <- pi
x2 <- pi / 3

# Using tan() Function
tan(x1)
tan(x2)

Output:

[1] -1.224647e-16
