Find the remaining 5 trigonometric ratios for q


We change  to the fraction 

Since  we draw q in Quadrant II
and since  we label the value of r as 3,
the numerator of , considering it as ,
and we label the value of x as the denominator -2.



Then we calculate the value of y by the Pythagorean relation:







So we now label y as 



Now the trig functions for q are:
