उत्तर
If cos A = `4/5`, then the value of tan A is `underlinebb(3/4)`.
Explanation:
According to the question,
cos A = `4/5` ...(1)
We know,
tan A = `(sin A)/(cos A)`
To find the value of sin A,
We have the equation,
sin2θ + cos2θ = 1
So, sin θ = `sqrt(1 - cos^2θ)`
Then,
sin A = `sqrt(1 - cos^2A)` ...(2)
sin2A = 1 – cos2A
sin A = `sqrt(1 - cos^2A)`
Substituting equation (1) in (2),
We get,
sin A = `sqrt(1 - (4/5)^2)`
= `sqrt(1 - (16/25))`
= `sqrt(9/25)`
= `3/4`
Therefore, tan A = `3/5 xx 5/4 = 3/4`.

Prove that: cot θ + tan θ = cosec θ·sec θ
Proof: L.H.S. = cot θ + tan θ
= `square/square + square/square` ......`[∵ cot θ = square/square, tan θ = square/square]`
= `(square + square)/(square xx square)` .....`[∵ square + square = 1]`
= `1/(square xx square)`
= `1/square xx 1/square`
= cosec θ·sec θ ......`[∵ "cosec" θ = 1/square, sec θ = 1/square]`
= R.H.S.
∴ L.H.S. = R.H.S.
∴ cot θ + tan θ = cosec·sec θ
