In the given interval, observe the graph and the maximum and minimum values the graphs of cotθ andtanθ attain. For the given interval,tanθ increases from 0 till 1. So most of the values would be less than 1 and greather than 0. For cotθ, it would decrease from infinity to 1. Hence, cotθ will always be greater than 1 in the given interval. numbers less than 1 when raised to large power tend to diminish more. Cotθ is a big number andtanθ is very small number in comparison. Use the analogy and put the values to understand the answer.
All the best
