if tan(a)= 2/3 and angle "a" is a principal angle that lies in quadrant 3
such that 0° ≤ a ≤ 360°, determine cos(a) and sin(a)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Right angled triangle with the legs 2 and 3;  the hypotenuse is   = .


sin(a) is ;  sign "minus" is because angle "a" is in QIII.


cos(a) is ;  sign "minus" is due to the same reason.

Solved.

if tan 0= 2/3 and angle 0 is a principal angle that lies in a quadrant 3 such that 0° ≤ θ ≤ 360°, determine cos 0 and sin 0

As θ is in the 3rd quadrant, 

                
                                  

               We then get:
