Synopsis

The TAN trigonometric function returns the tangent of the specified angle. The specification for the TAN function is:

FUNCTION TAN (angle NUMBER) RETURN NUMBER;

where angle must be expressed in radians. If your angle is specified in degrees, then you should call TAN as follows:

my_tane := TAN (ACOS(-1)*angle_in_degrees/180);
