Answer:

Cosecant, secant and cotangent are the reciprocals of sine, cosine and tangent.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cosecant is the reciprocal of the sine. The secant is the reciprocal of the cosine. The cotangent is the reciprocal of the tangent.

$\bf \underline{sin(\theta)}=\cfrac{1}{csc(\theta)}
\qquad 
% cosine
\underline{cos(\theta)}=\cfrac{1}{sec(\theta)}
\qquad 
% tangent
tan(\theta)=\cfrac{sin(\theta)}{cos(\theta)}
\\\\\\
% cotangent
csc(\theta)=\cfrac{1}{\underline{sin(\theta)}}
\qquad 
% secant
sec(\theta)=\cfrac{1}{\underline{cos(\theta)}}\qquad 
\begin{array}{llll}
cot(\theta)
\begin{cases}
\cfrac{cos(\theta)}{sin(\theta)}\\\\
\cfrac{1}{tan(\theta )}
\end{cases}
\end{array}$

Check the picture below.

volume wise, we know the smaller pyramid is 1/8 th of the whole pyramid, so the volume of the whole pyramid must be 8/8 th.

Now, if we take off 1/8 th of the volume of whole pyramid, what the whole pyramid is left with is 7/8 th of its total volume, and that 7/8 th is the truncated part, because the 1/8 we chopped off from it, is the volume of the tiny pyramid atop.

Now, what's the ratio of the tiny pyramid to the truncated bottom?

$\stackrel{\textit{\Large Volumes}}{\cfrac{\textit{small pyramid}}{\textit{frustum}}\implies \cfrac{~~\frac{1}{8}whole ~~}{\frac{7}{8}whole}}\implies \cfrac{~~\frac{1}{8} ~~}{\frac{7}{8}}\implies \cfrac{1}{8}\cdot \cfrac{8}{7}\implies \cfrac{1}{7}$
