Given:

In right triangle $GHI,m\angle I=90^\circ,GH=7.5,HI=7.2,GI=2.1$ .

To find:

The ratio (fraction) for Tan H.

Solution:

In a right triangle,

$Tan\theta=\dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}$

In $\Delta GHI$ .

$Tan H=\dfrac{GI}{HI}$

$Tan H=\dfrac{2.1}{7.2}$

It can be written as

$Tan H=\dfrac{21}{72}$

$Tan H=\dfrac{7}{24}$

Therefore, the fraction for Tan H is $\dfrac{2.1}{7.2}$ or it can be written as $\dfrac{7}{24}$ .
