the reference angle is the equivalent angle in quadrant 1.
\n" ); document.write( "the equivalent angle in quadrant 3 will be 180 + that angle.
\n" ); document.write( "that makes the equivalent angle in quadrant 3 equal to 180 + 26 = 206 degrees.
\n" ); document.write( "being the equivalent angle, the value of its trig functions would be the same except for the sign, depending on the quadrant it is in.
\n" ); document.write( "in quadrant 3, the sine is negative and the cosine is negative and the tangent is positive.
\n" ); document.write( "sin(26) = .4383711468 and sin(206) = -.4383711468
\n" ); document.write( "cos(26) = .8987940463 and cos(206) = -.8987940463
\n" ); document.write( "tan(26) = .4877325886 and tan(206) = .4877325886
\n" ); document.write( "cosecant is the reciprocal of sine.
\n" ); document.write( "secant is the reciprocal of cosine.
\n" ); document.write( "cotangent is the reciprocal of tangent.
\n" ); document.write( "if sine is equal except for the sign, then so is cosecant.
\n" ); document.write( "if cosine is equal except for for the sign, then so is secant.
\n" ); document.write( "if tangent is equal except for the sign, then so is cotangent.
