Humidity

While looking at the weather for tomorrow, I noticed that it is predicted to be less humid.  I got curious about humidity and dew point: According to the National Weather Service, "The dew point is the temperature the air needs to be cooled to (at constant pressure) in order to achieve a relative humidity (RH) of 100%."  But it didn't explain how to calculate less than 100% or why "a temperature of 80 and a dew point of 60 produces a relative humidity of 50%."  Wikipedia did explain, and the math was beyond my pay grade.   

I saw a female common whitetail but it saw me and took off.
