Recall that


\cos^2\theta+\sin^2\theta=1\implies\sin\theta=-√(1-\cos^2\theta)

where we take the negative square root because we know
\csc\theta=\frac1{\sin\theta}<0. Then


\sin\theta=-√(1-\left(\frac49\right)^2)=-\frac{√(65)}9

Then by definition of tangent,


\tan\theta=(\sin\theta)/(\cos\theta)=\frac{-\frac{√(65)}9}{\frac49}=-\frac{√(65)}4
