In right triangle DEF, mE = 90, DE = 8, EF = 15, and FD = 17. What is the value of tan F?

The value of tan F = 8/15 or 0.533333

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of tan F, we will follow the steps below;

We will use trigonometric ratio. that is;

SOH CAH TOA

sin Ф = opposite / hypotenuse

cosФ = adjacent/hypotenuse

tan Ф = opposite/adjacent

if Ф = F

then opposite = DE = 8

adjacent = EF = 15

web can now proceed to insert the values into the formula

tan F = opposite / adjacent

tan F = 8/15

tan F = 0.5333

tanF = oppos
