Detailed Solution

sinθ =  Opposite side   Hypotenuse  cosθ =  Adjacent side   Hypotenuse  tanθ =  Opposite side   Adjacent side   
Find the value of BC AB   Given that, tanA= 3 4  .
Which implies,  Side opposite to angle A  Side opposite to angle A = 3 4   Consider triangle ABC.
Question Image tanA= BC AB = 3 4   Let us assume BC = 3x and AB = 4x.
Applying Pythagoras Theorem,
(AC) 2 = (BC) 2 + (AB) 2 (AC) 2 = (3x) 2 + (4x) 2 (AC) 2 =9 x 2 +16 x 2 (AC) 2 =25 x 2 AC= 25 x 2 AC=5x  
Now, sinA=  Side opposite to angle A  Hypoten  Use    sinA= BC AC   sinA= 3x 5x   sinA= 3 5   Similarly,
cosA=  Side adjacent A  Hypotenuse  cosA= AB AC cosA= 4x 5x cosA= 4 5  
As we have the required values, let us find the value of 1 sinA + 1 cosA  .
1 sinA + 1 cosA = 1 3 5 + 1 4 5 = 5 3 + 5 4 = 5×4+5×3 3×4 = 20+15 12 = 35 12  
Therefore, the value of 1 sinA + 1 cosA = 35 12  .
The correct option is (3).
