tan A= ?
cosec A=2/√3
1 + cot^2A = cosec^2A...........identity
cot^2A = cosec^2A - 1
cot^2A = 4/3 - 1
cot^2A = 1/3
cot A = 1/√3
tan A = 1/cotA
tan A= √3
cosec A=2/√3
1 + cot^2A = cosec^2A...........identity
cot^2A = cosec^2A - 1
cot^2A = 4/3 - 1
cot^2A = 1/3
cot A = 1/√3
tan A = 1/cotA
tan A= √3

we have been given that,
cosec A = 2/√3
squaring both sides
cosec^2 A = 4/3 ........ 1
we know that,
1 + cot^2 A = Cosec^2 A
cot^2 = cosec^2 A - 1
cot^2 A = 4/3 - 1 ( from 1 )
cot^2 A = 1/3
1/tan^2 A = 1/3
tan^2 A = 3
taking square root both sides
tan A = +√3 or -√3
we know that the value of Tan A, where A us an acute angle, can never be negative.
so, Tan A = +√3
