Answer:

Cos θ = 13/15

Tan θ= 12/13

Explanation:

We are given;

Sin θ = 12/15

From trigonometric ratios, we know that;

Sin θ = opp/hyp

Cos θ = adj/hyp

Tan θ = opp/adj

Thus, since Sin θ = 12/15, then;

Adjacent side = √(15²- 12²)

Adhacent side = √169

Afjacent side =13

Thus;

Cos θ = 13/15

Tan θ= 12/13
