Question

A ramp is 17 feet long, rises 8 feet above the floor, and covers a horizontal distance of 15 feet, as shown in the figure. The ratio of to is equal to tan B.

Answer 1

Your answer is sin b and cos b 

Answer 2

In the given question, it is given that

ramp is 17 feet long, rises 8 feet above the floor, and covers a horizontal distance of 15 feet.

And we have to find the value of tan B.

And tangent of any angle is equal to the ratio of vertical by horizontal. That is

$tan B = \frac{8}{15}$

And that's the required missing ratio for tan B .
