I also
think it poses some other big questions: Is there life after death?  Is communication
with Earth possible from the afterlife?  Is that communication
directly affected by injustice?

Calculate tan(x-y), if sin x=1/2 and sin y=1/3. 0

We'll write the formula of the tangent of difference of 2 angles. tan (x-y) = (tan x - tan y)/(1 + tan x*tan y) ...
