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.
