I need a few quotes describing why Boo Radley gave the children the three gifts.

No one knows why Boo Radley left the gifts in the knothole
for Jem and Scout, but perhaps Scout explained it best in Chapter 31. It was because Boo
was "our neighbor."

    Neighbors bring food with death and flowers
with sickness and little things in between. Boo was our neighbor. He gave us two soap
dolls, a broken watch and chain, a pair of good-luck pennies, and our lives. But
neighbors give in return. We never put back into the tree what we took out of it: we had
given him nothing, and it made me
sad.



Scout's great wish
finally comes true when she sees Boo for the first time. He had "sickly white hands that
had never seen the sun... His face was as white as his hands... His cheeks were thin to
hollowness... his grey eyes were so colorless I thought he was blind. His hair was dead
and thin..." (Chapter
29)

Calculate tan(x-y), if sin x=1/2 and sin y=1/3. 0

We'll write the formula of the tangent of difference of 2 angles. tan (x-y) = (tan x - tan y)/(1 + tan x*tan y) ...
