fill in the blank. express your answer as a simplified ratio or whole number. use the \/\ key for a ratio.
$\tan(h) = \square$

Explanation:

Step1: Recall tangent ratio definition

$\tan(\theta) = \frac{\text{opposite side}}{\text{adjacent side}}$

Step2: Identify sides for $\angle H$

Opposite to $\angle H$: $IJ = 8$; Adjacent to $\angle H$: $HJ = 15$

Step3: Substitute values into ratio

$\tan(H) = \frac{8}{15}$

Answer:

$\frac{8}{15}$
