Solution

Let f(x) = tan x

Then f'(x) = `d/dx(tanx) = sec^2x`

Take a = 45°

= `pi/(4)`
and
h = 40'

= `(40/60 xx 0.0175)^c`

= 0.01167c

Then f(a) = `f(pi/4)`

= `tan  pi/(4)`
= 1
and
f'(a) = `f'(pi/4)`

= `sec^2  pi/(4)`

= `(sqrt(2))^2`
= 2
The formula for approximation is
f(a + h) ≑ f(a) + h.f'(a)
∴ tan(45° 40')
= f(45° 40')

= `f(pi/4 + 0.01167)`

≑ `f(pi/4) + (0.01167).f'(pi/4)`

≑ 1 + 0.01167 x 2 
= 1 + 0.02334
= 1.02334
∴ tan (45° 40') ≑ 1.02334.
