Question 1140333: find sin(t) given that sec(t)=-13/5 and tan(t)>0. use exact values not decimal approximations.

(1) cos(t) is the reciprocal of sec(t); use the given value of sec(t) to find the value of cos(t).
(2) Use the Pythagorean Identity to find the magnitude of sin(t).
(3) Use the fact that cos(t) is negative and tan(t) is positive to determine whether sin(t) is positive or negative.
