tanAtanB max when A=B=(π/6)

$${tanAtanB}\:{max}\:{when}\:{A}={B}=\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{6}} \\ $$

due to symmetry tan A×tan B is  maximum or minimum when A=B=(π/6),  max.=((√3)/3)×((√3)/3)=(1/3)

$${due}\:{to}\:{symmetry}\:\mathrm{tan}\:{A}×\mathrm{tan}\:{B}\:{is} \\ $$ $${maximum}\:{or}\:{minimum}\:{when}\:{A}={B}=\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{6}}, \\ $$ $${max}.=\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}}{\mathrm{3}}×\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}}{\mathrm{3}}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{3}} \\ $$

tan (A+B)=((tan A+tan B)/(1−tan Atan B))=(√3)  ⇒ tan Atan B=1−((tan A+tan B)/(√3))  let   f(x)=tan x+tan (π/3−x)           f ′(x)=sec^2 x−sec^2 (π/3−x)          =0  ⇒   x=(π/3)−x                  ⇒ x=(π/6)          f ′′((π/6))=2sec^2 (π/6)tan (π/6)                               +2sec^2 (π/6)tan (π/6) >0           hence (tan Atan B)_(max) =(1/3) .

$$\mathrm{tan}\:\left(\mathrm{A}+\mathrm{B}\right)=\frac{\mathrm{tan}\:\mathrm{A}+\mathrm{tan}\:\mathrm{B}}{\mathrm{1}−\mathrm{tan}\:\mathrm{Atan}\:\mathrm{B}}=\sqrt{\mathrm{3}} \\ $$ $$\Rightarrow\:\mathrm{tan}\:\mathrm{Atan}\:\mathrm{B}=\mathrm{1}−\frac{\mathrm{tan}\:\mathrm{A}+\mathrm{tan}\:\mathrm{B}}{\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}} \\ $$ $$\mathrm{let}\:\:\:\mathrm{f}\left(\mathrm{x}\right)=\mathrm{tan}\:\mathrm{x}+\mathrm{tan}\:\left(\pi/\mathrm{3}−\mathrm{x}\right) \\ $$ $$\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\mathrm{f}\:'\left(\mathrm{x}\right)=\mathrm{sec}\:^{\mathrm{2}} \mathrm{x}−\mathrm{sec}\:^{\mathrm{2}} \left(\pi/\mathrm{3}−\mathrm{x}\right) \\ $$ $$\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:=\mathrm{0}\:\:\Rightarrow\:\:\:\mathrm{x}=\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{3}}−\mathrm{x} \\ $$ $$\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\Rightarrow\:\mathrm{x}=\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{6}} \\ $$ $$\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\mathrm{f}\:''\left(\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{6}}\right)=\mathrm{2sec}\:^{\mathrm{2}} \frac{\pi}{\mathrm{6}}\mathrm{tan}\:\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{6}} \\ $$ $$\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:+\mathrm{2sec}\:^{\mathrm{2}} \frac{\pi}{\mathrm{6}}\mathrm{tan}\:\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{6}}\:>\mathrm{0} \\ $$ $$\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\mathrm{hence}\:\left(\mathrm{tan}\:\mathrm{Atan}\:\mathrm{B}\right)_{\mathrm{max}} =\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{3}}\:. \\ $$
