$sin theta = b/c=sqrt5/3, cos theta = a/c=2/3 , tan theta= b/a=sqrt 5/2 , csc theta = c/b=3/sqrt 5 , sec theta= c/a=3/2 ,cot theta= a/b=2/sqrt 5$

$a= 2 :. a^2=4 , b=sqrt 5 :. b^2=5 , c=3 :. c^2=9$

$a^2+b^2= 5+4=9=c^2:. a^2+b^2= c^2 ; a,b,c$ are

adjacent side , opposite side and hypotenuse of the right

triangle. To be drawn making sides $a and b$ at right angle

and $c$ as hypotenuse of the triangle.

Let $theta$ be the angle between adjacent side $a$

and hypotenuse $c$ , then , $sin theta = b/c=sqrt5/3$

$cos theta = a/c=2/3 , tan theta= b/a=sqrt 5/2$ ,

$csc theta = c/b=3/sqrt 5 , sec theta= c/a=3/2$ ,

$cot theta= a/b=2/sqrt 5$ [Ans]
