what number is the same under tangent with rad and deg

Basically, the question is tan(x) = Tan(x). Obviously besides 0, what would be the same under tan and Tan?

Degrees and radians are different units of measure.
x radians = x degrees only at x = 0

I'm sure other values of x exist where tan(x) = Tan(x). It's asking to be within 3 decimal points so it can't be 0. I was thinking because tan(x)=Tan((180/pi)x), the equation is just Tan((180/pi)x) = Tan(x)

But are there any other values? I would think so, like if you wanted to make them the same then it would be Tan((180/pi)x)=Tan(x).
