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( "=======================
