Find the value of csc 0 if cos 0 = -3/5 and 0 is in the second quadrant.

we know that the cos(θ) is -(3/5), however θ is in the II Quadrant, where the cosine is negative whilst the sine is positive, meaning the fraction is really (-3)/5, so

cos(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{adjacent}{-3}}{\underset{hypotenuse}{5}}\qquad \qquad \textit{let's find the \underline{opposite side}} \\\\\\ \textit{using the pythagorean theorem} \\\\ c^2=a^2+b^2\implies \sqrt{c^2-a^2}=b \qquad \begin{cases} c=hypotenuse\\ a=adjacent\\ b=opposite\\ \end{cases}

\pm\sqrt{5^2-(-3)^2}=b\implies \pm\sqrt{25-9}=b\implies \pm 4=b\implies \stackrel{II~Quadrant}{+4=b} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ ~\hfill csc(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{hypotenuse}{5}}{\underset{opposite}{4}}~\hfill

Find the unknown length of the right triangle. If necessary approximate the length to the nearest thousandth
WARRIOR [948]

We are given a right triangle and we are asked to determine the hypotenuse given the measure of its sides. To do that we will use the Pythagorean theorem:

h^2=(10km)^2+(20km)^2

Now, we solve the square:

h^2=100km^2+400km^2

Now, we add the values:

h^2=500km^2

Now, we take the square root to both sides:

h=\sqrt[]{500km^2}

Solving the operations:

h=22.361km

Therefore, the length of the hypotenuse is 22.361 kilometers.
