Tan 300° – Tan300° Value – What is the tan of 300 degrees? (2024)

Welcome to tan 300°, our post aboutthe tangent of 300 degrees.

For the tangent of 300 degrees we use the abbreviation tan for the trigonometric function together with the degree symbol °, and write it as tan 300°.

If you have been looking for what is tan 300°, or if you have been wondering about tan 300 degrees in radians, then you are right here, too.

In this post you can find the tan 300° value, along with identities.

Read on to learn all about the tan of 300°.

Tan 300 Degrees

If you want to know what is tan 300 degrees in terms of trigonometry, then navigate straight to the explanations in the next paragraph; what’s ahead in this section is the value of tan 300°:

The tan of 300 degrees is -√3, the same as tan of 300 degrees in radians. To obtain 300 degrees in radian multiply 300° by $\pi$ / 180° = 5/3 $\pi$. Tan 300degrees = tan (5/3 × $\pi)$.

Our results of tan300° have been rounded to five decimal places. If you want tangent 300° with higher accuracy, then use the calculator below; our tool displays ten decimal places.

To calculate tan 300 degrees insert the angle 300 in the field labelled °, but if you want to calculate tan 300 in radians, then you have to press the swap unit button first.

In terms of the other five trigonometric functions, tan of 300° =

• $\pm\frac{\sin 300^\circ}{\sqrt{1 – \sin^{2} 300^\circ}}$
• $\pm\frac{\sqrt{1 – \cos^{2} 300^\circ}}{\cos 300^\circ}$
• $\pm \sqrt{\sec^{2} 300^\circ -1}$
• $\pm\frac{1}{\sqrt{\csc^2 300^\circ – 1}}$
• $\frac{1}{\cot 300^\circ}$

As the cotangent function is the reciprocal of the tangent function, 1 / cot 300° = tan300°.

In the next part of this article we discuss the trigonometric significance of tan300°, and there you can also learn what the search calculations form in the sidebar is used for.

What is tan 300°?

In a circle with the radius r, the horizontal axis x, and the vertical axis y, 300 degrees is the angle formed by the two sides x and r; r moving counterclockwise is the positive angle.

Applying the unit-circle definition found on our homepage, assumed r = 1, in the intersection of the point (x,y) and the circle, y = sin 300°, x = cos 300° and tan 300° = sin 300°/cos 300°.

Note that you can locate many terms including the tangent300° value using the search form. On mobile devices you can find it by scrolling down. Enter, for instance, value of tan300°.

Along the same lines, using the aforementioned form, can you look up terms such as tan 300° value, tan 300, tan300° value and what is the tan of 300 degrees, just to name a few.

Given the periodicity of tangent of 300°, to determine the tangent of an angle > 180°, e.g. 1020°, calculate tan 1020° as tan (1020 Mod 180)° = tangent of 300°, or look it up with our form.
