(•) arctan 1+arctan 2=arctan (((1+2)/(1−1.2)))   arctan (−3)  (••) arctan (−3)+arctan (3)=arctan (((−3+3)/(1−(−3)(3))))   = arctan ((0/7)) = arctan 0 = π

$$\left(\bullet\right)\:\mathrm{arctan}\:\mathrm{1}+\mathrm{arctan}\:\mathrm{2}=\mathrm{arctan}\:\left(\frac{\mathrm{1}+\mathrm{2}}{\mathrm{1}−\mathrm{1}.\mathrm{2}}\right) \\ $$$$\:\mathrm{arctan}\:\left(−\mathrm{3}\right) \\ $$$$\left(\bullet\bullet\right)\:\mathrm{arctan}\:\left(−\mathrm{3}\right)+\mathrm{arctan}\:\left(\mathrm{3}\right)=\mathrm{arctan}\:\left(\frac{−\mathrm{3}+\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{1}−\left(−\mathrm{3}\right)\left(\mathrm{3}\right)}\right) \\ $$$$\:=\:\mathrm{arctan}\:\left(\frac{\mathrm{0}}{\mathrm{7}}\right)\:=\:\mathrm{arctan}\:\mathrm{0}\:=\:\pi \\ $$

arctan(0)=0

$$\mathrm{arctan}\left(\mathrm{0}\right)=\mathrm{0} \\ $$

arctan(1)=(π/4) and tan(arctan2+arctan3)=((2+3)/(1−2.3))=(5/(−5))=−1  ⇒arctan2 +arctan3=arctan(−1)=−(π/4) ⇒Σarctan=0

$$\mathrm{arctan}\left(\mathrm{1}\right)=\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{4}}\:\mathrm{and}\:\mathrm{tan}\left(\mathrm{arctan2}+\mathrm{arctan3}\right)=\frac{\mathrm{2}+\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{1}−\mathrm{2}.\mathrm{3}}=\frac{\mathrm{5}}{−\mathrm{5}}=−\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\mathrm{arctan2}\:+\mathrm{arctan3}=\mathrm{arctan}\left(−\mathrm{1}\right)=−\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{4}}\:\Rightarrow\Sigma\mathrm{arctan}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$
