To prove the identity \( \tan(\alpha + \beta) = \frac{\tan \alpha + \tan \beta}{1 - \tan \alpha \tan \beta} \) using geometrical interpretation, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Draw a Right Triangle for Each Angle 1. Draw a right triangle for angle \( \alpha \) with: - Opposite side = \( a \) - Adjacent side = \( b \) - Therefore, \( \tan \alpha = \frac{a}{b} \). ...
