Determine whether the series is divergent or convergent and find its sum.

Any tips on how to start this would be great. I'm aware its not geometric but the answer key indicates it diverges, however I have no idea how to physically show that with this equation. $$\sum_{n=0}^\infty\tan\frac{3\pi n}4$$ Perhaps the test for divergence is all I need to find the conclusion to this question?

The $n=2$ term is undefined (Mathematica's "complex infinity"), so the series diverges.
