tan(240°) = 1.73205081, exactly √3.
tan(240°) = 1.73205081, exactly √3. The angle 240° equals 4π/3 radians (240 × π/180).
Exact form: √3. Decimal: 1.73205081 (rounded to 8 places).
240° lies quadrant III. Remember that tangent is positive in quadrants I and III, and negative in the others, which decides the sign of the answer.
If you get a different number, the calculator is probably in RAD mode. In radians you would enter 4π/3 instead of 240.
