Question

Find sinθ and tanθ if cosθ=13/85, assuming that 0≤θ<π/2

Answer 1

Answer:

First notice that θ is in quadrant I, where the sine and tangent will also be positive.

Then draw the angle in quadrant I. Drop a perpendicular to the x axis.

Since cosθ= 7/25, label the horizontal leg 7, and the hypotenuse 25; the vertical leg will be 24 by Pythagorean theorem.

Then sinθ=vertical/hypotenuse=  24/25 and tanθ= vertical/horizontal=  24/7
