Determine the values of the trigonometric functions of t if P(t) lies in the second quadrant and on the line \n" ); document.write( "y = −3x. \n" ); document.write( "------- \n" ); document.write( "slope = -3 \n" ); document.write( "slope = tangent = y/x = -3/1 = 3/-1 \n" ); document.write( "So y = 3 and x = -1 \n" ); document.write( "---- \n" ); document.write( "Therefore r = sqrt(3^2+1^2) = sqrt(10) \n" ); document.write( "------- \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "How do I find the values of sin(t), cos(t), tan(t), cot(t), sec(t), and csc(t)? \n" ); document.write( "----- \n" ); document.write( "sin(t) = y/r = 3/sqrt(10) \n" ); document.write( "cos(t) = x/r = -1/sqrt(10) \n" ); document.write( "tan(t) = y/x = -3 \n" ); document.write( "csc(t) = sqrt(10)/3 \n" ); document.write( "sec(t) = -sqrt(10) \n" ); document.write( "cot(t) = x/y = -1/3 \n" ); document.write( "======================= \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "Stan H. \n" ); document.write( "======================= \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
