#pi/3# and DNE

Explanation:

The period for the tangent parent function is #pi#. However, since there is a coefficient multiplied by the #x# term, in this case #3#, there is a horizontal compression, so the period is shrunk by a factor of #1/3#.

There is no amplitude for tangent functions because they have no maxima or minima.
