If sin⁡θ=725\frac{7}{25}257​​, then cos⁡θ and tan⁡θ are respectively _____________. (Where θ is in the first quadrant)
Question

If sin⁡θ=725\frac{7}{25}​, then cos⁡θ and tan⁡θ are respectively _____________.
(Where θ is in the first quadrant)

A.

2524 and 247\frac{25}{24}\ and \ \frac{24}{7}​​

B.

257 and 724\frac{25}{7} \ and \ \frac{7}{24}​​

C.

2425 and 247\frac{24}{25} \ and \ \frac{24}{7}​​

D.

2425 and 724\frac{24}{25}\ and \ \frac{7}{24}​​

Correct option is D

Given:
sin⁡θ=7/25
Formula Used:
Pythagoras’ Theorem
(H)2=(P)2+(B)2(H)^2 = (P)^2 + (B)^2​​
Where H,P,B are hypotenuse, perpendicular and base respectively of a triangle
Solution:
We know that sine of theta is the ratio of perpendicular to hypotenuse
sin⁡θ =P/H=7/25
Using Pythagoras Theorem
(H)2=(P)2+(B)2 (25)2=(7)2+(B)2 (B)2=(25)2(7)2(H)^2 = (P)^2 + (B)^2 \\\ \\(25)^2 = (7)^2 + (B)^2 \\\ \\(B)^2 = (25)^2 - (7)^2​​
B= 24cm
Using Pythagoras triplets

Now,
 cosθ=BH=2425 tanθ=PB=724cos⁡θ =\frac{B}{H} =\frac{24}{25}\\\ \\tan⁡θ =\frac{P}{B}=\frac{7}{24}​​
