            Bug ID: 144066
           Summary: Tangent function is returning a number to the order of
                    10^16  for PI/2
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.1.5.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Description:
the tangent function =tan(radians) is returning a value way out of range.

to reproduce set a cell to pi()/2 and then another to take the value =tan(cell)



Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create cell with value PI()/2 as the value, lets say in A1
2. Create another cell with tan function referencing it.  say in B2 the val
=tan(A1)

Will also happen if you set tan equal to the value itself so =TAN(PI()/2)

Of note the value =TAN(PI()/4) returns 1 like it should.


Actual Results:
1.63312393531954E+016

Expected Results:
0.027422438


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes


OpenGL enabled: Yes

Additional Info:
It should have calculated the correct tangent value...
