Answer:
cscθ = 5/4, secθ = 5/3
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's view the drawing that I have attached, with the dot in the bottom left representing the origin. We know that cosecant and secant are the reciprocals of sin and cos respectively, and in order to find sin and cos, we must find the opposite, adjacent, and hypotenuse sides. The hypotenuse is opposite the right angle, equal to √(8²+6²) = 10
Next, we can find sin and cos of θ . sinθ = 8/10=4/5, making cscθ the reciprocal of 4/5, or 5/4
Similarly, cosθ = 6/10=3/5, and secθ = 5/3
