Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

See that attachment.

Our point is (8, 15), which means it's in the first quadrant. If we drop a perpendicular from the point to the x-axis, we have a right triangle, with opposite side 15 and adjacent side 8.

Tangent is opposite / adjacent, so we have:

tan(θ) = 15/8.

The answer is A.
