Solution:
Let us say, ABC is a right-angled triangle, right-angled at B.
Sin A = 3/4
As we know,
Sin A = Opposite Side/Hypotenuse Side = 3/4
Now, let BC be 3k and AC will be 4k.
where k is the positive real number.
As per the Pythagoras theorem, we know;
Hypotenuse² = Perpendicular²+Base²
AC² = AB² + BC²
Substitute the value of AC and BC in the above expression to get;
(4k)² = (AB)² + (3k)²
16k² – 9k² = AB²
AB² = 7k²
Hence, AB = √7 k
Now, as per the question, we need to find the value of cos A and tan A.
cos A = Adjacent Side/Hypotenuse side = AB/AC
cos A = √7 k/4k = √7/4
And,
tan A = Opposite side/Adjacent side = BC/AB
tan A = 3k/√7 k = 3/√7
