Answer

\(\boxed{\tan(-x)}\) is the final answer.

Steps

Step 1 :Given the expression \(\frac{\tan 2 x-\tan x}{1+\tan 2 x \tan x}\)

Step 2 :This is a trigonometric identity problem. The expression given is a standard trigonometric identity for \(\tan(x-y)\).

Step 3 :So, we can simplify the expression to \(\tan(x - 2x)\).

Step 4 :However, we know from trigonometric identities that \(\frac{\tan a - \tan b}{1 + \tan a \tan b} = \tan(a - b)\).

Step 5 :So, we can manually simplify the expression to \(\tan(x - 2x) = \tan(-x)\).

Step 6 :\(\boxed{\tan(-x)}\) is the final answer.
