To be fair, this question is not much of a trigonometry question. It’s almost purely a proportion question. Has you school gone through the inputting of sin, cos and tan into the calculator?

If you put tan 30 directly into the calculator, you will not obtain a nice number. The square of it, however, is a nice number 1/3.

Note that (tan 30)^2 = (tan 30) x (tan 30) and not tan (30 x 30) which has a different meaning altogether.

Similar ideas apply for tan 60. This will be seen again in Sec 3 or Sec 4 A Maths if you are taking A Maths next year.
