Answer with explanation:

The meaning of the word Domain for a function, y=f(x),is set of all possible values of x for which y, is defined.

The given function is:

y = tan x

x∈(-∞, ∞) that is , x ∈ R,except at those points,where, cos x =0


\tan x=(\sin x)/(\cos x)

⇒Cos x=0


x=n\pi \pm(\pi)/(2)

Domain of tan x ,is

All Real Numbers except at


x=n\pi \pm(\pi)/(2)

=R - {
x= n\pi \pm(\pi)/(2) }
