Answer: C. opposite leg/adjacent leg

Step-by-step explanation: Tangents use opposite over the adjacent side of the angle. You can use "SOH CAH TOA" which can help you with tangents, cosines, and sines. SOH = sine, CAH = cosine, and TOA = tangent. O = Opposite leg, H = Hypotenuse, and A = Adjacent leg.
