In this video, we learn how to find the tangent value of an acute angle in a right triangle by using the ratios of the triangle's sides. The tangent value is found by dividing the length of the opposite leg by the length of the adjacent leg. We also explore the concept of similar triangles and how the tangent values remain constant for similar triangles.
