Question

In the terminal side of an angle in standard position lies on -4y=3x and x>0, find the exact values of the trigonometric functions of 0

Answer 1

Answer:

sec ∅  =  5/4

cosec ∅  = -5/3

cot ∅  = -4/3

Tan ∅ = - 3/4

sin ∅   = -3/5

cos ∅   =4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : -4y = 3x  , x > 0

i.e. 3x + 4y = 0 ,  x >0

4y = -3x  ∴ y = - 3/4 x

The values of trigonometric functions of  ∅  are

Tan ∅  = opposite / adjacent

           = - 3/4   ( given that y = slope which is = Tan  ∅ )

now we will find the hypothenuse ( c )

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 = 9 + 16 = 25

therefore ; c = √25 = 5

hence the trig functions are :

sin ∅   = -3/5

cos ∅   =4/5

sec ∅ = 5/4

cosec ∅ = -5/3

cot ∅ = -4/3
