If tan A = 3/4 then find the value of sin A.
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
tanA=opp/adj
=3/4
So the hypotenuse=√(3x^2+4x^2)
=√(9+16)
=√25
=5x
sinA=opp/hyp
=3x/5x
=3/5
Answer:
If tan A = 3/4 then the value of sin A.=3/5 or -3/5
Step by step. Explanation:
Given tan(A) = 3/4
=> sin(A)/cos(A) = 3/4
=> sin(A)/{√(1-sin^2(A)} = 3/4
=> 4sin(A) = 3√(1-sin^2(A))
=> 16sin^2(A) = 9(1-sin^2(A))
=> 16sin^2(A) = 9 - 9sin^2(A)
=> 25sin^2(A) = 9
=> sin^2(A) =9/25
=> sin(A) = 3/5 or -3/5
=> sin(A) = 3/5 or -3/5 [ as -3/5 <1]
OR
TanA=opposite side of A/adjacent side of A
Given TanA=3/4
opposite side of A =, 3
adjacent side of A = 4
Therefore hypotenuse^2 = 3^2 + 4^2
hypotenuse^2 = 9+16
hypotenuse = 5
Then SinA= opposite side of A/hypotenuse
SinA= 3/5.
