Find the value of tan (−1125°).

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. -1.

tan (-θ) = - tan θ

tan (360 + θ) = tan θ

So, tan (-1125°) = - tan 1125°

= - tan {(360 × 3) + 45}

= - tan (1080 + 45)

= - tan 45°

= -1

Therefore, the value of tan (−1125°) is -1.
