Answer:

In fact, in the last line of the play, Lucentio implies that Kate, in the end, allowed herself to be tamed: “'Tis a wonder, by your leave, she will be tamed so” (V. ii. 193). Perhaps Lucentio implies that Kate and Petruchio planned the wager, and that they worked as a team to dupe the others out of their money

Answer:

Katherine Minola was never tamed in the play, but she was brainwashed and manipulated to act in a manner that was socially acceptable in the 16th century.
