In triangle ABC, angle C = 90, AC = 8 cm, BC = 6 cm, find tan B

A triangle in which one angle is 90º is called rectangular.

The tangent of an acute angle of a right-angled triangle is the ratio of the opposite leg to the adjacent leg:

tg B = AC / BC;

tg B = 8/6 ≈ 1.33.

Answer: the tangent of the angle ∠B is 1.33.
