उत्तर
Let ΔABC be a right-angled triangle, right-angled at point B.
Given that,
sin A = `3/4`
`("BC")/("AC") = 3/4`
Let BC be 3k.
Therefore, AC will be 4k, where k is a positive integer.
Applying Pythagoras theorem in ΔABC, we obtain
AC2 = AB2 + BC2
(4k)2 = AB2 + (3k)2
16k2 − 9k2 = AB2
7k2 = AB2
AB = `sqrt7k`
cos A = `("Side adjacent to ∠A")/"Hypotenuse"`
∴ cos A = `("AB")/("AC")`
= `sqrt(7k)/(4k)`
= `sqrt7/4`
tan A = `("Side adjacent to ∠A")/("Side adjacent to ∠A")`
= `("BC")/("AB")`
= `(3k)/(sqrt7k)`
= `3/sqrt7`

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
