Given, tan A = {tex}\frac { 3 } { 4 }{/tex}

⇒ tan A = {tex}\frac { P } { B } = \frac { 3 x } { 4 x }{/tex} [ from figure ]

H2 = P2 + B2 [By Pythagoras theorem]
= (3x)2 + (4x)2
= 9x2 + 16x2

⇒ H2 = 25x2

or, H2=(5x)2

⇒ H = 5x

Therefore,

sin A = {tex}\frac { P } { H } = \frac { 3 x } { 5 x } = \frac { 3 } { 5 }{/tex}

and cos A = {tex}\frac { B } { H } = \frac { 4 x } { 5 x } = \frac { 4 } { 5 }{/tex}

Now, LHS = sin A cos A

 {tex}= \frac { 3 } { 5 } \times \frac { 4 } { 5 } = \frac { 12 } { 25 }{/tex} = RHS

Hence, proved.
