Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

sin(theta) = - 8/17

cos(theta)= 15/17

Tan(theta) = ?

Comment

Without using the Pythagorean Theorem, you could simply use tan(theta) = Sin(theta) / cos(theta)

Tan(theta) = sin(theta) / cos(theta)

Tan(theta) =[tex]\dfrac{\dfrac{-8}{17} }{\dfrac{15}{17} }[/tex]

Now turn  the bottom fraction upside down and multiply.

Tan(theta) = [tex]\dfrac{-8}{17}*\dfrac{17}{15} = \dfrac{-8}{15}[/tex]

Answer Tan(theta) = -8/15
