Question 1011944: Angle K is located in the third quadrant with a sectant of -6. Find the exact expressions for the other 5 trig ratios for Angle K.

The secant is -6 and the cosine is -1/6.
That is a right triangle of sides 1 and sqrt(35), whose sum of each squared is 36.
Therefore, the sine is -sqrt(35)/36
The cosecant is -36/sqrt(35)
The tangent is sin x/cos x = -sqrt (35)/36/-(1/6)=sqrt (35)/6
The cotangent is 6 sqrt(35)/35, after rationalizing.
