Find tan theta if sin theta 13 and theta terminates in Qj F
Find tan theta if sin theta = 1/3 and theta terminates in Qj. Find sec theta if tan theta = 8/15 and theta terminates in Qlll. Find CSC theta if cot theta = -24/7 and theta terminates in QIV. Find sec theta if tan theta = and cos theta
Solution
7). sin =1/3 is in QI (all are positive)
sin^2 +cos^2 =1
(1/3)^2 +cos^2 =1
cos^2 = 1-1/9
cos = sqrt(8)/3
tan = sin/cos
=1/3 / sqrt(8)/3
=1/sqrt(8)
=1/2sqrt(2)
8). tan =8/15 is QIII (only tan and cot are positive)
by sec^2 -tan^2 =1
sec^2 = 1+(8/15)^2
sec^2 =1 +64/225
sec^2 = 289/225
sec = - 17/15
9).
cot =-24/7 is QIV (so cos and sec are positive)
csc^2 -cot^2 =1
csc^2 = 1 +(24/7)^2
csc = - 25/7
10).
tan =-21/20 is in QII
sec^2 - tan^2 =1
sec^2 = 1 +441/400
sec = - 29/20
