Using the trigonometric identity for tan(A + B), prove that tan(3x)=(3tan(x)-tan^3(x))/(1-3tan^2(x))

tan(3x)=tan(2x+x), by using the identity for tan(A+B)=(tan(A)+tan(B))/(1-tan(A)tan(B)),tan(3x)=tan(2x+x)=(tan(2x)+tan(x))/(1-tan(2x)tan(x)), using it again for tan(2x),tan(3x)=tan(2x+x)=([(tan(x)+tan(x))/(1-...
