Your edits to law of tangents prompt some comments:

  • If you write <math> a\,tan \alpha</math>, then what you see is this:
But if you write <math> a\tan \alpha\,</math>, then what you see is this:
The latter is standard. The backslash before "tan" not only prevents italicization but provides proper spacing both before and after "tan". The backslash-comma at the end is needed to make it render properly on some browsers.
  • If you write <math> \tan ( \frac{\alpha + \beta}{2})</math>, then you see this:
But if you write <math> \tan \left( \frac{\alpha + \beta}{2}\right)</math>, then you see this:
So using \left and \right makes the parentheses adapt to the size of the expression that they enclose. Michael Hardy 01:54, 15 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
