उत्तर

Given, tan A = `3/4 = "P"/"B" = "Perpendicular"/"Base"`
Let P = 3k and B = 4k
By Pythagoras theorem,
H2 = P2 + B2
= (3k)2 + (4k)2
= 9k2 + 16k2
= 25k2
⇒ H = 5k ...[Since, side cannot be negative]
∴ sin A = `"P"/"H" = (3"k")/(5"k") = 3/5`
And cos A = `"B"/"H" = (4"k")/(5"k") = 4/5`
Now, sin A cos A = `3/5 * 4/5 = 12/25`
Hence proved.

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
