Exam 3 Math 136 PreCalculus Fall 2016 Dr Yunjiao Wang te Ple
Exam 3 (Math 136 PreCalculus, Fall 2016) Dr. Yunjiao Wang te: Please write down the necessary steps. Otherwise, zero credit will be assigned. 15 points) Suppose tan -1 and K 0 S T, find the exact values of sin e, cos e ec 6, csc 0 and cot
Solution
tan = -2/3 [ is in IInd quadrant]
Now
cot = 1/tan = -3/2
sec = sqrt[1 + tan^2 ] = sqrt[1 + 4/9] = -13/3
cos = 1/sec = -3/13
sin = sqrt[1 – cos^2 ] = sqrt[1 – 9/13] = 2/13
csc = 1/sin = 13/2
