Assignment #17 - Finding Tangent of x using Sine and Cosine

Due Thursday, December 10, 2015

Write a program that will calculate the tangent of angles from 0 degrees to 86 degrees in five degree increments. You will NOT use math.tangent; instead use math.sine and math.cosine.

Please remember the following:

• tangent x = sin x / cos x
• The math methods sin, cos and tangent expect the angle' in radians
• You can convert from degrees to radians using math.radians (xInDegrees).
