Correct Answer: $\frac{5}{4}$
Solution : Given: 3 cot A = 4 ⇒ cot A = $\frac{4}{3}=\frac{\text{Base}}{\text{Perpendicular}}$ Let Base = 4k and Perpendicular = 3k So, Hypotenuse = $\sqrt{{3k}^2+{4k}^2} = 5k$ $\therefore$ sec A = $\frac{\text{Hypotenuse}}{\text{Base}}=\frac{5k}{4k}=\frac{5}{4}$ Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{5}{4}$.
