Answer:

sinB = 15/17

cosB = 8/17

tanB = 15/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the angle B:

The opposite = 15

The adjacent = 8

The opposite = 17

Note that:

sin θ = Opposite/Hypotenuse

cos θ = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

tan θ = Opposite/Adjacent

Based on the points stated above:

sinB = 15/17

cosB = 8/17

tanB = 15/8
