The possible outcomes for 1 HEAD and 3 TAILS are

HTTT
THTT
TTHT
TTTH

Assuming the coin is a fair coin, we have:
Probability of tossing head is 0.5
Probability of tossing tail is 0.5

Probability of tossing the coin four times for each outcome combination listed above is

HTTT = 0.5×0.5×0.5×0.5 = 0.0625
THTT = 0.5×0.5×0.5×0.5 = 0.0625
TTHT = 0.5×0.5×0.5×0.5 = 0.0625
TTTH = 0.5×0.5×0.5×0.5 = 0.0625

Hence, probability of getting three tails and one head from 4 tossing is 
4×0.0625 = 0.25

(-2/3, sqrt5/3) is a point on a unit circle. Find the cosine, cosecant, and sine of the angle.
Nana76 [90]

Look at the picture.

\csc\theta=\dfrac{1}{\sin\theta}=\dfrac{1}{\frac{y}{r}}=\dfrac{r}{y}

We have the right triangle x, y and r. From the Pythagorean theorem we have:

r^2=x^2+y^2\to r=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}

We have the point

\left(-\dfrac{2}{3};\ \dfrac{\sqrt5}{3}\right)

Substitute:

r=\sqrt{\left(-\dfrac{2}{3}\right)^2+\left(\dfrac{\sqrt5}{3}\right)^2}\\\\r=\sqrt{\dfrac{4}{9}+\dfrac{5}{9}}\\\\r=\sqrt{\dfrac{9}{9}}\\\\r=1

\csc\theta=\dfrac{1}{\frac{\sqrt5}{3}}=\dfrac{3}{\sqrt5}=\dfrac{3\cdot\sqrt5}{\sqrt5\cdot\sqrt5}=\boxed{\dfrac{3\sqrt5}{5}}
