find csc 0 if 0 is an angle in standard position whose terminal side passes through (-12, 5)
-----
csc = 1/sin = r/y
r = sqrt[12^2+5^2] = sqrt[144+25] = sqrt(169) = 13
====
csc(t) = 13/5
---
Ans: Theta = arcsin(5/13) = 22.62 degrees

.
The correct answer is

= = .

The problem does not ask about the value of , but the other tutor for some (unknown to me) reason gives the value of    as the answer, 


and makes it  I N C O R R E C T L Y.


The correct value of  (although, again, the problem does not ask about it !) is  =  = 180 - 22.62 = 157.38 degrees.
