Problems Plus 19: Sum of Inverse Tan Series Using Exact Trig Ratios
In this video I go over the sum of an infinite series that can be solved by noting it is just the Maclaurin series for inverse tan for the angle π/6. Using exact trigonometric ratios, by splitting an equilateral triangle and applying the Pythagorean Theorem, I show that tan(π/6) = 1/sqrt(3). This means that the inverse tan or arctan(1/sqrt(3)) = π/6. Plugging this value into our earlier Maclaurin series for tan(x), we obtain a formula that includes are given series in the Problem, which we can solve fairly easily.
The timestamps of key parts of the video are listed below:
- Problem 19: 0:00
- Solution: Maclaurin series for arctan(x): 0:19
- Exact trig ratios triangle for tan(π/6) 2:45
- Series for arctan(1/sqrt(3)): 5:19
- Alternate form of the solution: 12:40
