Question

Please help!!!

Find the tangent ratio of angle Θ. Hint: Use the slash symbol ( / ) to represent the fraction bar, and enter the fraction with no spaces.

Answer 1

largely depends on the angle \(\theta\)

Answer 2

\[\tan(\theta)=\frac{\text{opposite }}{\text{adjacent}}\]

Answer 3

let me know what you get, don't think too hard

Answer 4

I don't get it ):

Answer 5

?
better call on wiz one through six!
what is the length of the side of the right triangle opposite the angle \(\theta\) ??

Answer 6

just read it off of the picture

Answer 7

hahaha, youre still with that joke? what ah loser :P

Answer 8

hey at least i remember,
plus, i know what an opposite side is!

Answer 9

op : 15 ?

Answer 10

yes

Answer 11

adjacent?

Answer 12

hint, it is not the hypotenuse

Answer 13

was that sarcastic? lol

Answer 14

well not really
it occurred to me that both 8 and 17 are technically adjacent to the angle, but you want the leg, not the hypotenuse

Answer 15

so that angle?

Answer 16

and therefore
\[\tan(\theta)=\frac{15}{8}\] done

Answer 17

now i hope
\[\tan(\theta)=\frac{\text{opposite }}{\text{adjacent}}\]makes more sense

Answer 18

the answer will remain a fraction? I mean it makes sense, I just thought there was more to it.

Answer 19

no that is all
i guess you could use a calculator to get a decimal, but the question says us / as a fraction bar, so they don't want a decimal, they want 15/8

Answer 20

Youre great (:
