Calculating :$((\sqrt{3} + \tan (1^\circ)).((\sqrt{3} +\tan(2^\circ))...((\sqrt{3}+\tan(29^\circ))$ What is the easiest way to calculate :
$$(\sqrt{3} + \tan (1^\circ)).((\sqrt{3} +\tan(2^\circ))...((\sqrt{3}+\tan(29^\circ)) $$
 A: Maybe you wanna go this way:
$$P=(\sqrt{3} + \tan (1^\circ))((\sqrt{3} +\tan(2^\circ))\cdots((\sqrt{3}+\tan(29^\circ))$$
$$\frac{P}{2^{29}}=\frac{(\sqrt{3} \cos(1^\circ) + \sin (1^\circ))}{2\cos(1^\circ)}\frac{(\sqrt{3} \cos(2^\circ) + \sin (2^\circ))}{2\cos(2^\circ)}\cdots\frac{(\sqrt{3} \cos(29^\circ) + \sin (29^\circ))}{2\cos(29^\circ)}$$
Above I used the fact that
$$\sin(60^\circ+\alpha^\circ)=\frac{\sqrt3}{2}\cos \alpha^\circ+\frac{1}{2}\sin \alpha^\circ$$
then
$$\frac{P}{2^{29}}=\frac{\sin61^\circ\sin62^\circ\cdots\sin89^\circ}{\cos1^\circ\cos2^\circ\cdots\cos29^\circ}=\frac{\sin61^\circ\sin62^\circ\cdots\sin89^\circ}{\sin89^\circ\sin88^\circ\cdots\sin61^\circ}=1$$
$$P={2^{29}}.$$
Q.E.D.
A: $\sqrt3+\tan(30^\circ-x)=\sqrt3+\frac{\frac{1}{\sqrt3}-\tan x}{1+ \frac{1}{\sqrt3}\tan x}$
$=\sqrt 3+\frac{1-\sqrt 3 \tan x}{\sqrt 3+\tan x}=\frac{4}{\sqrt 3+\tan x}$
$$\Longrightarrow(\sqrt 3+\tan(30^\circ-x))(\sqrt 3+\tan x)=4$$
Put $x=1,2,....,14^\circ$.
To complete, $x=15^\circ$, $(\sqrt 3+\tan(30^\circ-15^\circ))(\sqrt 3+\tan 15^\circ)=4$
$\implies (\sqrt 3+\tan 15^\circ)^2=4\implies \sqrt 3+\tan 15^\circ=2$ as $\tan 15^\circ>0$.
So, the answer should be $4^{14}\cdot 2=2^{29}$
A little generalization : 
Assuming $A≠n\frac{\pi}{2}$(where $n$ is any integer) so that $\cot A$ and $\tan A$ are non-zero finite,
$\cot A+ \tan(A-y)= \cot A+ \frac{\tan A-\tan y}{1+\tan A\tan y}=\frac{\cot A + \tan A}{1+\tan A\tan y}=\frac{\csc^2A}{\cot A + \tan y}$ (multiplying the numerator & the denominator by $\cot A$)
$\implies (\cot A+ \tan(A-y))(\cot A + \tan y)=\csc^2A $ , here $A=30^\circ$.
A: Note that $\sqrt{3} = \tan(60^{\circ})$, so your product is $$(\tan(60^{\circ}) + \tan (1^\circ))\cdot((\tan(60^{\circ}) +\tan(2^\circ))\cdots((\tan(60^{\circ})+\tan(29^\circ)).$$ Now use the identity (which is very simple to prove by just writing $\tan$ in terms of $\sin$ and $\cos$ and adding the resulting fractions) $$\tan(A) + \tan(B) = \frac{\sin(A+B)}{\cos(A)\cos(B)}.$$ For your product, set $A = 60^{\circ}$, so we have $$(\tan(60^{\circ}) + \tan (1^\circ))\cdot((\tan(60^{\circ}) +\tan(2^\circ))\cdots((\tan(60^{\circ})+\tan(29^\circ)) \\ = \frac{\sin(61^{\circ})\sin(62^{\circ})\cdots\sin(89^{\circ})}{(\cos(60^{\circ}))^{29}\cos(1^{\circ})\cos(2^{\circ})\cdots\cos(29^{\circ})}.$$ And using $\cos(x)=\sin(90^{\circ}-x)$, this reduces to $$\frac{1}{(\cos(60^{\circ}))^{29}}=2^{29}.$$
