Question 920936: Suppose cos t = -0.4 and csc t < 0 . Find each of the following
sin t =
tan t =
csc t =
sec t =
cot t =
Is there a way to find this using the unit circle? I am thinking I could draw a right triangle in the 4th quadrant and somehow figure it out from there but i'm not sure. I think the y is negative because csc=1/y which is stated as <0 and therefore negative.
Please explain
Thanks!

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
cos t = - 4/10 sqrt%2810%5E2+-+4%5E2%29+=+sqrt%2884%29+=+2sqrt%2821%29
csc t < 0
sint = - 2√21/10 = -√21 / 5
