in ∆ABC, m∠B = 90°. If BC=3 and AC=5
from Pythagoras theorem,
AC² = AB² + BC²
5² = AB² + 3²
25 - 9 = AB²
16 = AB²
AB = ± 4 but AB is length so, AB ≠ -4
hence, AB = 4, BC = 3 and AC = 5
we know that ,



so, sinA = BC/AC = 3/5 and cosecA = 1/sinA = 1/{3/5} = 5/3
cosA = AB/AC = 4/5 and secA = 1/cosA = 1/{4/5} = 5/4
tanA = BC/AB = 3/4 and cotA = 1/tanA = 1/{3/4} = 4/3
