Explanation:

Step1: Recall the tangent ratio formula

In a right - triangle, \(\tan\theta=\frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}}\) (from SOHCAHTOA).

Step2: Identify the opposite and adjacent sides

For angle \(\theta\), the side opposite to \(\theta\) is \(8\) and the side adjacent to \(\theta\) is \(15\).

Answer:

\(\tan\theta=\frac{8}{15}\)
