Which trigonometric functions are negative in the fourth (IV) quadrant?

<h3>Answers are: sine, tangent, cosecant, cotangent</h3>

Explanation:

On the unit circle we have some point (x,y) such that x = cos(theta) and y = sin(theta). The sine corresponds to the y coordinate of the point on the circle. Quadrant IV is below the x axis which explains why sine is negative here, since y < 0 here.

Since sine is negative, so is cosecant as this is the reciprocal of sine

csc = 1/sin

In quadrant IV, cosine is positive as x > 0 here. So the ratio tan = sin/cos is going to be negative. We have a negative over a positive when we divide.

Because tangent is negative, so is cotangent.

The only positive functions in Q4 are cosine and secant, which is because sec = 1/cos.

if the ratio of similarity of the figures above is 2/3, then what is the ratio of the perimeters of the two figures?
Mademuasel [1]

Perimeter = side 1 + side 2 ´+ side 3.

Triangle 1

Perimeter = 6 + 8 + 10

= 24

Triangle 2

Perimeter = 9 + 12 + 15

= 36

Ratio

24/36 = 2/3

The ratio of the perimeters is also 2/3
