No. Tan(x) represents the value of sin(x)/cos(x). While sin(x) and cos(x) are always less than one, the value of tan(x) ranges from -infinity to infinity. If you've learned the unit circle, remember that tan(x) represents the slope of the line connecting the origin to any point on the circle. This line ranges from horizontal to vertical, so, clearly, tan(x) can be greater than 1.

The - before the 1 represents it is less, so the -1 will always be less than a, since the - is before the one, and so that means the 1 is less than a.

Why sinθ value is less then and equal to one?

If you look at the definition of the sine function in a triangle, you'll discover that the maximum possible value of the sine function is ' 1 ' and the minimum possible value is ' -1 '. There's no angle that can have a sine greater than ' 1 ' or less than ' -1 '. So the absolute value of the sine of anything is always ' 1 ' or less.
