Answer: -20/21

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the Pythagorean identity, we can get that the sine of angle theta is [tex]\pm 20/29[/tex].

But since theta terminates in Quadrant II, the sine of angle theta is positive, meaning that it has a value of 20/29.

Now, since tan = sin/cos, tan theta = (20/29)/(-21/29) = -20/21
