Question 862203: Without using a calculator find exact value of cos (1950o).
Without using a calculator find the exact value of csc(-43Pi/4)
If cscβ = 4, find cosβ and cotβ to six decimal places. Consider that(which means that β is in quadrant II.)
cos(1950°)
We use the fact that we can add or subtract any integer times 360°
to an angle and get a coterminal angle that has the same trig
ratios.
So we divide 1950° by 360°
5
360)1950
1800
150
So we can subtract 5×360° or 1800° from the angle and still have an
angle with the same cosine:
So cos(1950°) = cos(1950°-1800°) = cos(150°) =
----------------
We use the fact that we can add or subtract any integer times
to an angle in radians and get a coterminal angle that has the same trig
ratios:
So we divide by .
If we added only 5 times to the angle, we would get a negative angle,
so we must add 1 more than 5 or 6 times to get a positive angle.
So we add or to the angle and get a positive angle
with the same cosecant:
