A circle is a geometric object that has symmetry about the vertical and horizontal lines through its center. When the circle is a unit circle (of radius 1) centered on the origin of the x-y plane, points in the first quadrant can be reflected across the x- or y- axes (or both) to give points in the other quadrants.
That is, if the terminal ray of an angle intersects the unit circle in the first quadrant, the point of intersection reflected across the y-axis will give an angle whose measure is the original angle subtracted from the measure of a half-circle. Since the measure of a half-circle is π radians, the reflection of the angle π/6 radians will be the angle π-π/6 = 5π/6 radians.
Reflecting 1st-quadrant angles across the origin into the third quadrant adds π radians to their measure. Reflecting them across the x-axis into the 4th quadrant gives an angle whose measure is 2π radians minus the measure of the original angle.
Answer:
Mike drew the following figure in his notebook. What is the value of ? Show all work
Step-by-step explanation:

In the expression 4(x), 4 represents the number of legs, and x represents the height of the coffee table.
Altogether this expression shows the total length of all legs from the coffee table and kitchen table combined.
Answer:
C. cot theta
Step-by-step explanation:
(csc theta -cot theta )/(sec theta -1)
csc = 1/ sin
cot = cos / sin
sec = 1 / cos
Let x = theta
(1/ sin x -cos x / sin x )/(1/ cos x -1)
Getting a common denominator in the denominator and combining terms
(1- cos x)/ sinx / ( 1 - cos x) / cos x
(1- cosx) (1- cosx)
----------- ÷ ------------
sinx cos x
Copy dot flip
(1- cosx) cosx
----------- * ------------
sinx 1 -cos x
Cancel like terms
cos x / sin x
cos / sin = cot
cot x
cot theta
