Answer

$\frac{\pi}{12} \leq \int_{\pi/4}^{\pi/3} tan~x~dx \leq \frac{\sqrt{3}~\pi}{12}$

Work Step by Step

On the interval $\frac{\pi}{4} \leq x \leq \frac{\pi}{3}$: $1 \leq tan~x \leq \sqrt{3}$ Therefore, by the Comparison Property 8: $1(\frac{\pi}{3}-\frac{\pi}{4}) \leq \int_{\pi/4}^{\pi/3} tan~x~dx \leq \sqrt{3}(\frac{\pi}{3}-\frac{\pi}{4})$ $1(\frac{\pi}{12}) \leq \int_{\pi/4}^{\pi/3} tan~x~dx \leq \sqrt{3}(\frac{\pi}{12})$ $\frac{\pi}{12} \leq \int_{\pi/4}^{\pi/3} tan~x~dx \leq \frac{\sqrt{3}~\pi}{12}$
