Solution
We have ,
cos B = `3/5`
⇒ ` cos ( 90° - A ) = 3/5 ( As , A+ B = 90°)`
∴ sin A = `3/5`

Solution :
L.H.S. = cotθ + tanθ
= `cosθ/sinθ + sinθ/cosθ`
= `(square + square)/(sinθ xx cosθ)`
= `1/(sinθ xx cosθ)` ............... `square`
= `1/sinθ xx 1/square`
= cosecθ × secθ
L.H.S. = R.H.S
∴ cotθ + tanθ = cosecθ × secθ
