Explanation:

We need to find the exact value of tan 60° in simplest form with a rational denominator.​

We know that,
\tan\theta=(\sin \theta)/(\cos\theta)

Here,
\theta=60^(\circ)

So,


\tan(60)=(\sin (60))/(\cos(60))\\\\=((\sqrt3)/(2))/((1)/(2))\\\\=1.73\\\\or\\\\=(173)/(100)

Hence, this is the required solution.
