3sinx + 4cosx = 5
3/5sinx + 4/5cosx = 1
Comparing it with standard equation
sinx*sinx + cosx*cosx= 1
We get cosx= 4/5, sinx = 3/5
Therefore,
tanx = sinx/cosx
= 3/5 / 4/5
= 3/4
Hope it helps✌

3Sinx + 4Cosx = 5
3/5Sinx + 4/5Cosx = 1
Comparing it,
Sinx × Sinx + Cosx × Cosx= 1
We get Cosx= 4/5, Sinx = 3/5
Therefore,
Tanx = Sinx/Cosx
= 3/5 / 4/5
= 3/4
