In a rectangular triangle [tex]\tan\theta\dfrac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex].

We have [tex]\tan\theta=\dfrac{3}{4}[/tex]

Therefore opposite = 3uints and adjacent = 4units.

[tex]\csc\theta=\dfrac{hypotenuse}{opposite}[/tex]

We need the length of hypotenuse.

Use the Pythagorean theorem:

[tex]h^2=3^2+4^2\\\\h^2=9+16\\\\h^2=25\to h=\sqrt{25}\to h=5units[/tex]

Substitute:

[tex]\csc\theta=\dfrac{5}{3}[/tex]
