tan (73)

A bit surprised both the Prime and 50g gave incorrect answers.

My '34S (in double-precision mode) differs from Wolfram Alpha - at least on tan (73*pi/180) - only starting in the 32nd decimal place:

WP-34S:3.270852618484140865308856257305407
.... W/A: 3.2708526184841408653088562573054107771059....
