Answer:
Cot(theta) = - 0.75 or -3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
The hypotenuse is 5
The y value is 4
We need to find the corresponding x value.
x^2 + y^2 = z^2
X = ?
y = 4
z = 5
x^2 + 4^2 = 5^2
x^2 + 16 = 25
x^2 = 9
Now in this case, you are in quadrant 2, so the x value is - 3
sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(9)
x = - 3
The cot value is the adjacent (x value) / the opposite ( y ) value
Cot(theta) = -3/4
cot(theta) = -0.75
The answer to your problem is -1x.
