The correct Answer is:
To find the value of \( \tan A + \tan B + \tan C \) in an acute-angled triangle \( ABC \), we can use the relationship between the tangent of the angles and the properties of triangles. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Angles in Triangle**: In any triangle, the sum of the angles is \( 180^\circ \). Therefore, we have: \[ A + B + C = 180^\circ \] 2. **Using the Tangent Addition Formula**: We know that: \[ \tan(A + B + C) = \tan 180^\circ = 0 \] Using the tangent addition formula: \[ \tan(A + B) = \frac{\tan A + \tan B}{1 - \tan A \tan B} \] Thus, we can express \( \tan C \) as: \[ \tan C = \tan(180^\circ - (A + B)) = -\tan(A + B) \] 3. **Substituting for \( \tan C \)**: Since \( \tan C = -\tan(A + B) \), we can write: \[ \tan C = -\frac{\tan A + \tan B}{1 - \tan A \tan B} \] 4. **Finding \( \tan A + \tan B + \tan C \)**: Now substituting \( \tan C \) into the expression: \[ \tan A + \tan B + \tan C = \tan A + \tan B - \frac{\tan A + \tan B}{1 - \tan A \tan B} \] Let \( x = \tan A + \tan B \). Then we have: \[ x - \frac{x}{1 - \tan A \tan B} = x \left( 1 - \frac{1}{1 - \tan A \tan B} \right) \] Simplifying gives: \[ = x \left( \frac{-\tan A \tan B}{1 - \tan A \tan B} \right) \] 5. **Using AM-GM Inequality**: By applying the Arithmetic Mean-Geometric Mean (AM-GM) inequality: \[ \frac{\tan A + \tan B + \tan C}{3} \geq \sqrt[3]{\tan A \tan B \tan C} \] This implies: \[ \tan A + \tan B + \tan C \geq 3 \sqrt[3]{\tan A \tan B \tan C} \] 6. **Final Result**: For an acute triangle, it can be shown that: \[ \tan A + \tan B + \tan C = \tan A \tan B \tan C \] Therefore, the value of \( \tan A + \tan B + \tan C \) simplifies to: \[ \tan A + \tan B + \tan C = 3\sqrt{3} \] ### Conclusion: Thus, the value of \( \tan A + \tan B + \tan C \) in an acute-angled triangle \( ABC \) is \( 3\sqrt{3} \).

To find the value of \( \tan A + \tan B + \tan C \) in an acute-angled triangle \( ABC \), we can use the relationship between the tangent of the angles and the properties of triangles. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Angles in Triangle**: In any triangle, the sum of the angles is \( 180^\circ \).
