If tan a + tan b = 2
Tan (a+b) = 4
And we know tan a is less than tan b, determine tan a and tan b.
Under "apparently" I have written solutions. My problem is that I do not understand how I can just use what I got for tan b. I get that the solution with + goes to tan b because it's bigger than tan a, but when I plug the answers back into the equation for tan a I get something different. It just doesn't make sense to me. How??
