HELP! Find tan θ if sin θ = 3/4 and θ terminates in QI.

OpenStudy (visarika23):

sin(theta)=perpendicular/hypotenuse p=3 h=4 using Pythagoras theorem find base tan(theta)=p/b

OpenStudy (liziekay):

so a^2+3^2=4^2?

OpenStudy (liziekay):

Would it be the square root of 5?

OpenStudy (liziekay):

@Visarika23
