The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

Concept: Using the identity \[ \tan(x+y)=\frac{\tan x+\tan y}{1-\tan x\tan y} \]

Step 1: Apply the identity for \(\tan3A\).
\[ \tan3A=\tan(2A+A) =\frac{\tan2A+\tan A}{1-\tan2A\tan A} \]

Step 2: Multiply both sides.
\[ \tan3A(1-\tan2A\tan A) =\tan2A+\tan A \] \[ \tan3A-\tan3A\tan2A\tan A =\tan2A+\tan A \]

Step 3: Rearrange.
\[ \tan3A\tan2A\tan A =\tan3A-\tan2A-\tan A \] Hence, \[ \tan3A-\tan2A\tan A\tan3A =\tan2A+\tan A \] which gives the required result \[ \tan3A-\tan2A\tan A =\tan3A+\tan2A+\tan A \] center minipage0.55
