Complete all of the following problems. Show work when appropriate. Use the Basic Trigonometric Identities to evaluate the related function, If sin theta = 4/5 and pi/2Solution
sin theta = 4/5
theta lies between pi/2 to pi that is 2nd quadrant
sin theta = perpendicular / hypotenuse
perpendicular = 4
hypotenuse = 5
base = sqrt ( hypotenuse^2 - perpendicular ^2 ) = sqrt ( 5^2 - 4^2 ) = 3
therefore, cot theta = base / perpendicular = 3 / 4
since in 2nd quadrant cot theta is negaive therefore value is cot theta = - 3/4
2) tan x = -1
x lies in 2nd quadrant
tan x = perpendicular / base
perpendicular = 1
base = 1
hypotenuse = sqrt ( 1^2 + 1^2 ) = sqrt 2
sin x = perpendicular / hypotenuse = 1 / sqrt 2 = sqrt 2 / 2
cos x = base / hypotenuse = - 1 / sqrt 2 = - sqrt 2 / 2
sec x = 1 / cos x = - sqrt 2
cosec x = 1 / sin x = sqrt 2
cot x = 1 / tan x = -1
