Find the values of the indicated functions Given tan 1548 f
Find the values of the indicated functions.
Given tan = 1.548, find cot and sec .
COT=
SEC=
Solution
Given tan = 1.548, find cot and sec .
but tan = 1/cot
1.548 = 1/cot
cot = 1/1.548
= 0.646
now another identity sec^2 - tan^2 =1
so we know tan plug in this equation
sec^2 - (1.548)^2 =1
sec^2 = 1 +2.396
sec^2 = 3.396
sec = 1.843
COT =0.646
SEC=1.843
