Answer:

[tex]tan(x/2)=-4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The angle x belong to the III quadrant -----> given problem

step 1

Find the angle x

[tex]x=arctan(8/15)=28.07\°[/tex]

Remember that the angle x belong to the III Quadrant

so

[tex]x=28.07\°+180\°=208.07\°[/tex]

step 2

Find angle x/2

[tex]x/2=208.07\°/2=104.035\°[/tex]

step 3

Find tan(x/2)

[tex]tan(104.035\°)=-4[/tex]
