Algebra.Com's Answer #678024 by stanbon(75887)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! What are the remaining trigonometric functions of θ, if cos θ = -3/5 and sin θ > 0? Proceeding from 4/5. Thanks! \n" ); document.write( "------ \n" ); document.write( "Since cos is negative and sin is positive, the angle is in QII \n" ); document.write( "where x is negative and y is positive. \n" ); document.write( "---------------------- \n" ); document.write( "Since cos = x/r, x = -3 and r = 5 \n" ); document.write( "Then y = sqrt[5^2-3^2] = sqrt[16] = 4 \n" ); document.write( "------- \n" ); document.write( "sin = y/r = 4/5 \n" ); document.write( "cos = x/r = -3/5 \n" ); document.write( "tan = y/x = -4/3 \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "csc = r/y = 5/4 \n" ); document.write( "sec = r/x = -5/3 \n" ); document.write( "cot = x/y = -3/4 \n" ); document.write( "--------------------- \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "Stan H. \n" ); document.write( "--------------- \n" ); document.write( " |
