Answer:

The correct option is 1.

Explanation:

Let the value of sinθ and tanθ is same.


\tan\theta = \sin \theta


(\sin\theta)/(\cos \theta) = \sin \theta
[\because \tan\theta=(\sin\theta)/(\cos \theta)]

Cancel out the common factor.


(1)/(\cos \theta) = 1


1=\cos \theta


\cos (\pi)=\cos \theta


\pi=\theta

For
\theta=\pi, the value of sinθ and tanθ is same.

Therefore the correct option is 1.
