-|-
-|First, we find the differential &nbsp;<math style="vertical-align: -4px">dy.</math>
-|-
-|Since &nbsp;<math style="vertical-align: -5px">y=\tan x,</math>&nbsp; we have

-|-
-|Now, we plug &nbsp;<math style="vertical-align: -15px">x=\frac{\pi}{4}</math>&nbsp; into the differential from Step 1.

-|-
-|First, we find &nbsp;<math style="vertical-align: -1px">dx.</math>&nbsp;  We have
