Solution Steps

Step 1: Evaluate the Angle

We start by evaluating the angle \( \frac{5\pi}{4} \). This angle is located in the third quadrant of the unit circle.

Step 2: Calculate the Tangent

Next, we calculate \( \tan\left(\frac{5\pi}{4}\right) \). In the third quadrant, the tangent function is positive, and we find that: \[ \tan\left(\frac{5\pi}{4}\right) = 1 \]

Step 3: Sum the Tangent Values

Since the expression requires us to find \( \tan\left(\frac{5\pi}{4}\right) + \tan\left(\frac{5\pi}{4}\right) \), we can sum the two values: \[ \tan\left(\frac{5\pi}{4}\right) + \tan\left(\frac{5\pi}{4}\right) = 1 + 1 = 2 \]

Final Answer

\(\boxed{2}\)
