Answer: 8/17

Step-by-step explanation: The ratio for tangent is opposite/adjacent. The side opposite from Y has a length of 8, and the side next to it has a length of 15. These are the lengths of the legs of the triangle. To find the sine ratio, you need the hypotenuse.

The hypotenuse can be found using the Pythagorean theorem. 8^2=64 and 15^2=225. 225+64=289. The square root of 289 is 17. The hypotenuse has a length of 17.

The ratio for sine is opposite/hypotenuse. Take the value of the opposite from the tangent ratio (8) and the length of the hypotenuse (17) to get 8/17.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question seems is:
If C = 10π, what does 10 represent?

The circumference of a circle formula is:

C = 2πr or C = πd

10 in the given equation represents the diameter of the circle, d = 10
