Answer:

cosθ = 3/5

Explanation:

Given that,

sinθ = 4/5

We need to find the value of cosθ.

We know that,

sinθ = P/H

Where

P is perpendicular and H is Hypotenuse

Using Pythagoras theorem to find base (b).

H²=P²+B², b is base

We have, H = 5, P = 4, B=?

b²=5²-4²

b=3

We know that, cosθ = B/H

Putting all the values,

cosθ = 3/5

Hence, the correct option is (b) "cosθ = 3/5".
