You can put this solution on YOUR website! First, we need to be familiar with the following trigonometric ratios:
From Angle E, we have opposite = 8 and adjacent = 6.
We can find the hypotenuse using the Pythagorean Theorem:
, so
So, we have that the hypotenuse = 10.
Plugging this information we have our ratios:
Reducing, we have:
