Answer:

The correct option is

Option d. Sin θ = -√65/9 and Tan θ = -√65/4

Explanation:

Points to remeber

Sin θ = Opposit side/ Hypotenuse

Cos θ = Adjacent side/Hypotenuse

Tan θ= Opposite side /Adjacent side

To find opposite side

It is given that,

Cos θ = -4/9 = Adjacent side/Hypotenuse

We can find opposite side of angle θ

opposit side ² = Hypotenuse² - adjacent side² = 9² - 4²

= 81 - 16 = 65

Opposite side = √65

To find sinθ and tanθ

Sin θ = Opposit side/ Hypotenuse = -√65/9

Tan θ = Opposite side /Adjacent side = -√65/4

Therefore the correct option is

Option d. Sin θ = -√65/9 and Tan θ = -√65/4
