Correct Answer: $\frac{4}{5}$


Solution : Given that $\tan A = \frac{4}{3}$,
Consider a right-angled triangle where the opposite side (perpendicular) is 4 units and the adjacent side (base) is 3 units.
Using the Pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse of this triangle can be calculated as $\sqrt{4^2 + 3^2} = 5$ units.
Therefore, $\sin A = \frac{\text{Perpendicular}}{\text{Hypotenuse}} = \frac{4}{5}$.
Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{4}{5}$.
