Let w,x,yw, x, y, and zz be positive real numbers such that

0≠cos⁡wcos⁡xcos⁡ycos⁡z2π=w+x+y+z3tan⁡w=k(1+sec⁡w)4tan⁡x=k(1+sec⁡x)5tan⁡y=k(1+sec⁡y)6tan⁡z=k(1+sec⁡z)\begin{aligned} 0 & \neq \cos w \cos x \cos y \cos z \\ 2 \pi & =w+x+y+z \\ 3 \tan w & =k(1+\sec w) \\ 4 \tan x & =k(1+\sec x) \\ 5 \tan y & =k(1+\sec y) \\ 6 \tan z & =k(1+\sec z) \end{aligned}

(Here sec⁡t\sec t denotes 1cos⁡t\frac{1}{\cos t} when cos⁡t≠0\cos t \neq 0.) Find kk.
