1. **Problem statement:** Given $\sin \alpha = \frac{3}{5}$ with $\alpha$ in the first quadrant, find:
- 5.3.1 $\tan \alpha$
- 5.3.2 $\sin \beta$
- 5.3.3 Coordinates of point $P$
Then, prove the identity:
$$\frac{\sin \theta - \tan \theta \cos^2 \theta}{\cos \theta - 1 + \sin^2 \theta} = \tan \theta$$

2. **Step 5.3.1: Find $\tan \alpha$ given $\sin \alpha = \frac{3}{5}$**
- Since $\alpha$ is in the first quadrant, all trigonometric values are positive.
- Using Pythagoras theorem in the right triangle:
$$\sin \alpha = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{hypotenuse}} = \frac{3}{5}$$
- Find adjacent side:
$$\text{adjacent} = \sqrt{5^2 - 3^2} = \sqrt{25 - 9} = \sqrt{16} = 4$$
- Then,
$$\tan \alpha = \frac{\sin \alpha}{\cos \alpha} = \frac{3/5}{4/5} = \frac{3}{4}$$
---
3. **Step 5.3.2: Find $\sin \beta$**
- Given $OP = 2 RO$ and $\angle TOP = \beta$.
- Point $P$ lies on the line $RO$ extended, so the vector length doubles and $P$ lies in the opposite direction of $R$ relative to $O$ (third quadrant).
- Since $\beta$ is angle between $OP$ and positive x-axis and $\beta$ is in the third quadrant,
- Coordinates of $R$ can be found from $\alpha$:
$$R = (x, y) = (\cos \alpha, \sin \alpha) = \left(\frac{4}{5}, \frac{3}{5}\right)$$
- Vector $OP$ is twice $RO$ but in opposite direction, so:
$$P = -2R = \left(-2\times \frac{4}{5}, -2 \times \frac{3}{5}\right) = \left(-\frac{8}{5}, -\frac{6}{5}\right)$$
- Then,
$$\sin \beta = \frac{\text{opposite side}}{\text{hypotenuse}} = \frac{-\frac{6}{5}}{|P|}$$
- Length $|P| = 2 |R| = 2 \times 1 = 2$ (since $R$ lies on unit circle basis)
- Hence:
$$\sin \beta = \frac{-\frac{6}{5}}{2} = -\frac{6}{10} = -\frac{3}{5}$$
---
4. **Step 5.3.3: Coordinates of $P$**
- As from above:
$$P = \left(-\frac{8}{5}, -\frac{6}{5}\right)$$

5. **Proof of identity:**
Prove:
$$\frac{\sin \theta - \tan \theta \cos^2 \theta}{\cos \theta - 1 + \sin^2 \theta} = \tan \theta$$
- Start with left-hand side (LHS):
$$\text{LHS} = \frac{\sin \theta - \tan \theta \cos^2 \theta}{\cos \theta - 1 + \sin^2 \theta}$$
- Replace $\tan \theta = \frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}$:
$$= \frac{\sin \theta - \frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta} \cos^2 \theta}{\cos \theta - 1 + \sin^2 \theta} = \frac{\sin \theta - \sin \theta \cos \theta}{\cos \theta - 1 + \sin^2 \theta}$$
- Factor numerator:
$$= \frac{\sin \theta(1 - \cos \theta)}{\cos \theta - 1 + \sin^2 \theta}$$
- Use Pythagorean identity $\sin^2 \theta = 1 - \cos^2 \theta$ to simplify the denominator:
$$\cos \theta - 1 + (1 - \cos^2 \theta) = \cos \theta - 1 + 1 - \cos^2 \theta = \cos \theta - \cos^2 \theta$$
- Factor denominator:
$$= \cos \theta (1 - \cos \theta)$$
- So LHS becomes:
$$\frac{\sin \theta (1 - \cos \theta)}{\cos \theta (1 - \cos \theta)}$$
- Cancel $(1 - \cos \theta)$ (nonzero for $\theta \neq 0$):
$$= \frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta} = \tan \theta$$
- Therefore, identity proven:
$$\boxed{\frac{\sin \theta - \tan \theta \cos^2 \theta}{\cos \theta - 1 + \sin^2 \theta} = \tan \theta}$$
