Solution
`tan theta = 1/sqrt7` `(cosec^2 theta - sec^2 theta)/(cosec^2 theta + sec^2 theta) = 3/4`
`tan theta = "๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ก๐ ๐ ๐๐๐"/"๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ก ๐ ๐๐๐"`
Let ‘x’ be the hypotenuse
By applying Pythagoras
๐ด๐ถ2 = ๐ด๐ต2 + ๐ต๐ถ2
`x^2 = 1^2 + (sqrt7)^2`
๐ฅ2 = 1 + 7 = 8
`x = 2sqrt2`
`cosec theta = (AC)/(AB) = 2sqrt2`
`sec theta = (AC)/(BC) = (2sqrt2)/sqrt7`
Substitute, cosec θ, sec θ in equation
`=> ((2sqrt2)^2 - (2 sqrt(2/7))^2)/((2sqrt2)^2 + ((2sqrt2)/sqrt7)^2)`
`(8 - 4 xx 2/7)/(8 + 4 xx 2/7)`
`=> (8 - 8/7)/(8 + 8/7)`
`=> ((56 - 8)/7)/((56 + 8)/7)`
`=48/64`
`= 3/4`
