$ \sin(\frac{\pi}{6}) = \frac{1}{2} $

$ \cos(\frac{\pi}{6}) = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} $

$ \tan(\frac{\pi}{6}) = \frac{\sin(\frac{\pi}{6})}{\cos(\frac{\pi}{6})} = \frac{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{3} $

First, we find the sine of ( frac{pi}{6} ).

$ sin(frac{pi}{6}) = frac{1}{2} $

Next, we find the cosine of ( frac{pi}{6} ).

$ cos(frac{pi}{6}) = frac{sqrt{3}}{2} $

Finally, we find the tangent of ( frac{pi}{6} ).

$ an(frac{pi}{6}) = frac{sin(frac{pi}{6})}{cos(frac{pi}{6})} = frac{frac{1}{2}}{frac{sqrt{3}}{2}} = frac{1}{sqrt{3}} = frac{sqrt{3}}{3} $

$ sin(frac{pi}{6}) = frac{1}{2} $

$ cos(frac{pi}{6}) = frac{sqrt{3}}{2} $

$ an(frac{pi}{6}) = frac{1}{sqrt{3}} = frac{sqrt{3}}{3} $
