Find the values of the six trigonometric functions of an angle O-(slash is through the circle) in standard position whose terminal side passes through point P.
Plot the point in the 4th Quadrant.
Using Pytagoras you find the distance from the origin to the point is 5.
Sin(theta)= y/r=-4/5
Cos(theta)=x/r=3/5
tan(theta)=y/x=-4/3
csc(theta)=r/y=-5/4
sec(theta)=r/x=5/3
cot(theta)=x/y=-3/4
