Tangent of Complex Number/Formulation 1

Theorem
Let $a$ and $b$ be real numbers.

Let $i$ be the imaginary unit.

Then:
 * $\tan \paren {a + b i} = \dfrac {\sin a \cosh b + i \cos a \sinh b} {\cos a \cosh b - i \sin a \sinh b}$

where:
 * $\tan$ denotes the complex tangent function
 * $\sin$ denotes the real sine function
 * $\cos$ denotes the real cosine function
 * $\sinh$ denotes the hyperbolic sine function
 * $\cosh$ denotes the hyperbolic cosine function.
