In act one scene 4 explain Romeo's speech lines 113-120 and in this scene when and where does it take place?

The lines in question occur at the very end of scene iv,
following Mercutio's famous Queen Mab speech and just before the beginning of scene v
which is the Capulet's feast.


Following the discussion of
dreams, Benvolio reminds Romeo and his friends that time is slipping away from them and,
if they do not hurry, they will be late for the party. Romeo contradicts Benvolio and
says that he fears they will be too early and he shares his premonition that their
attendance at the Capulet's party will set into motion a chain of events that will lead
ultimately to his own death. The audience is aware of the accuracy of this foreshadowing
from the information we received in the Prologue. However, Romeo--in true Romeo
form--ignores his own fears and better judgement and heads to the party
anyway.

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) ...
