Detailed Solution

Let we have a triangle, 

Cot A=43

Question Image

Since Cot A =Adjacent sideOpposite side=ABBC=43

Let AB be 4k and BC will be 3k

where k is a positive real number.

Using Pythagoras theorem, we get

AC2=AB2 + BC2

(AC)2=4k2 + (3k)2

AC2=16k2+9k2 

AC2=25k2

Thus, AC =5k

Sin A =Opposite sideHypotenuse= BCAC=3k5k=35

Cos A =Adjacent sideHypotenuse= ABAC= 4k5k=45

tan A =Opposite sideAdjacent side=BCAB=3k4k=34

So, 1-tan2A1+tan2A=1-3421+342=1-9161+916=16-916+9=725

cos2A-sin2A=452-352=1625-925=725

Since both results are equal, the given statement is true.
