.SH DESCRIPTION
-The
-.BR tan ()
-function returns the tangent of \fIx\fP, where \fIx\fP is
+These functions return the tangent of
+.IR x ,
+where
+.I x
+is
given in radians.
.SH RETURN VALUE
On success, these functions return the tangent of
.IR x .
-
+.PP
If
.I x
is a NaN, a NaN is returned.
-
+.PP
If
.I x
is positive infinity or negative infinity,
a domain error occurs,
and a NaN is returned.
-
+.PP
If the correct result would overflow,
a range error occurs,
and the functions return
Domain error: \fIx\fP is an infinity
.I errno
is set to

+.B EDOM
(but see BUGS).
An invalid floating-point exception
.RB ( FE_INVALID )
An overflow floating-point exception
.RB ( FE_OVERFLOW )
is raised.
