Answer

a. $\sin A$. b. $\cos A$. c. $\tan A$.

Work Step by Step

a. $=\cos A\cdot \tan A$ Use $\tan A=\frac{\sin A}{\cos A}$. $=\cos A\cdot \frac{\sin A}{\cos A}$ Cancel common terms. $=\sin A$. b. $=\sin A\div \tan A$ Use $\tan A=\frac{\sin A}{\cos A}$. $=\sin A\div \frac{\sin A}{\cos A}$ $=\sin A\times \frac{\cos A}{\sin A}$ Cancel common terms. $=\cos A$. c. $=\sin A\div \cos A$ Write as a fraction. $=\frac{\sin A}{ \cos A}$ Use $\frac{\sin A}{\cos A}=\tan A$. $=\tan A$.
