If cos θ=-5/13 and 0≤x ≤2 π, determine:
\n" ); document.write( "Since cos = x/5, x = -5 and r = 13
\n" ); document.write( "Then y = sqrt(r^2-x^2) = 12 or -12
\n" ); document.write( "----------------
\n" ); document.write( "a) tan θ = y/x = +12/13 or -12/13
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------
\n" ); document.write( "b) sec θ = r/x = 13/-5
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------
\n" ); document.write( "c) the possible values of θ to the nearest tenth
\n" ); document.write( "theta = inversetan(-12/13) = 180 - 42.7 = 137.3
\n" ); document.write( "or
\n" ); document.write( "theta = inverseta(12/13) = 122.7
\n" ); document.write( "=====================================
