$Lt(t->0)(tan8t)/(tan5t)=8/5$

Let us first find $Lt_(x->0)tanx/x$

$Lt_(x->0)tanx/x=Lt_(x->0)(sinx)/(xcosx)$

= $Lt_(x->0)(sinx)/x xx Lt_(x->0)1/cosx$

= $1xx1=1$

Hence $Lt_(t->0)(tan8t)/(tan5t)$

= $Lt_(t->0)((tan8t)/(8t))/((tan5t)/(5t))xx(8t)/(5t)$

= $(Lt_(8t->0)((tan8t)/(8t)))/(Lt_(5t->0)((tan5t)/(5t)))xx8/5$

= $1/1xx8/5=8/5$
