<PRE><B>Question 488076</B>
The terminal side of an angle theta in standard position coincides with the line 3x+y=0 in Quadrant II. Find csc theta to the nearest thousandth.
----
y = -3x
When x = -1, y = 3
---
Then r = sqrt(x^2+y^2) = sqrt(1+9) = sqrt(10)
----
csc(theta) = r/y = 1/3)sqrt(10) = 1.054
