Related simple continued fractions expansions (see my comments in A019425):
tan(1/(10*k)) = [0; 10*k - 1, 1, 30*k - 2, 1, 50*k - 2, 1, 70*k - 2, 1, 90*k - 2, 1, ...] for k >= 1.
If d is a divisor of 10 with d*d' = 10 then the simple continued fraction expansion of d*tan(1/10) begins [0; d' - 1, 1, 30*d - 2, 1, 5*d' - 2, 1, 70*d - 2, 1, 9*d' - 2, 1, 110*d - 2, 1, 13*d' - 2, ...], while the simple continued fraction expansion of (1/d)*tan(1/10) begins [ 0; 10*d - 1, 1, 3*d'- 2, 1, 50*d - 2, 1, 7*d' - 2, 1, 90*d - 2, 1, 11*d' - 2, 1, 130*d - 2, ...].

FORMULA
From Colin Barker, Sep 08 2013: (Start)
a(n) = -1/2+(3*(-1)^n)/2+5*n-5*(-1)^n*n for n>1.
a(n) = 2*a(n-2)-a(n-4) for n>5.
G.f.: x*(x^4-x^3+10*x^2+x+9) / ((x-1)^2*(x+1)^2). (End)
EXAMPLE
