The values of cosine Ф and cotangent Ф are and -1
Step-by-step explanation:
When a terminal side of an angle intersect the unit circle at
point (x , y), then:
- The x-coordinate is equal to cosine the angle between the positive part of x-axis and the terminal side
- The y-coordinate is equal to sine the angle between the positive part of x-axis and the terminal side
- If x and y coordinates are positive, then the angle lies in the 1st quadrant
- If x-coordinate is negative and y-coordinate is positive, then the angle lies in the 2nd quadrant
- If x and y coordinates are negative, then the angle lies in the 3rd quadrant
- If x-coordinate is positive and y-coordinate is negative, then the angle lies in the 4th quadrant
∵ The terminal ray of angle Ф intersects the unit circle at point
- According to the 1st and 2nd notes above
∴ cosФ = x-coordinate of the point
∴ sinФ = y-coordinate of the point
∵ The x-coordinate of the point is negative
∵ They-coordinate of the point is positive
- According the the 4th note above
∴ Angle Ф lies in the 2nd quadrant
∵ x-coordinate =
∴ cosФ =
∵ y-coordinate =
∴ sinФ =
- cotФ is the reciprocal of tanФ
∵ tanФ = sinФ ÷ cosФ
∴ cotФ = cosФ ÷ sinФ
∴ cotФ = ÷
∴ cotФ = -1
The values of cosine Ф and cotangent Ф are and -1
