1. Problem Description

The problem states that sinA=34\sin A = \frac{3}{4}, and asks us to find the other trigonometric ratios for angle A.

2. Solution Steps

Since sinA=34\sin A = \frac{3}{4}, we can think of this as the opposite side being 3 and the hypotenuse being 4 in a right-angled triangle.
We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the adjacent side. Let the adjacent side be xx.
Then, x2+32=42x^2 + 3^2 = 4^2.
x2+9=16x^2 + 9 = 16
x2=169x^2 = 16 - 9
x2=7x^2 = 7
x=7x = \sqrt{7}
Now we can find the other trigonometric ratios:
cosA=adjacenthypotenuse=74\cos A = \frac{\text{adjacent}}{\text{hypotenuse}} = \frac{\sqrt{7}}{4}
tanA=oppositeadjacent=37\tan A = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}} = \frac{3}{\sqrt{7}}
cscA=1sinA=134=43\csc A = \frac{1}{\sin A} = \frac{1}{\frac{3}{4}} = \frac{4}{3}
secA=1cosA=174=47\sec A = \frac{1}{\cos A} = \frac{1}{\frac{\sqrt{7}}{4}} = \frac{4}{\sqrt{7}}
cotA=1tanA=137=73\cot A = \frac{1}{\tan A} = \frac{1}{\frac{3}{\sqrt{7}}} = \frac{\sqrt{7}}{3}

3. Final Answer

cosA=74\cos A = \frac{\sqrt{7}}{4}
tanA=37\tan A = \frac{3}{\sqrt{7}}
cscA=43\csc A = \frac{4}{3}
secA=47\sec A = \frac{4}{\sqrt{7}}
cotA=73\cot A = \frac{\sqrt{7}}{3}
