Hi there! You have to remember these 6 basic Trigonometric Ratios which are:
- sine (sin) = opposite/hypotenuse
- cosine (cos) = adjacent/hypotenuse
- tangent (tan) = opposite/adjacent
- cosecant (cosec/csc) = hypotenuse/opposite
- secant (sec) = hypotenuse/adjacent
- cotangent (cot) = adjacent/opposite
- cosecant is the reciprocal of sine
- secant is the reciprocal of cosine
- cotangent is the reciprocal of tangent
Back to the question. Assuming that the question asks you to find the cosine, sine, cosecant and secant of angle theta.
What we have now are:
- Trigonometric Ratio
- Adjacent = 12
- Opposite = 10
Looks like we are missing the hypotenuse. Do you remember the Pythagorean Theorem? Recall it!
Define that c-term is the hypotenuse. a-term and b-term can be defined as adjacent or opposite
Since we know the value of adjacent and opposite, we can use the formula to find the hypotenuse.
- 10²+12² = c²
- 100+144 = c²
- 244 = c²
Thus, the hypotenuse is:
Now that we know all lengths of the triangle, we can find the ratio. Recall Trigonometric Ratio above! Therefore, the answers are:
- cosine (cosθ) = adjacent/hypotenuse = 12/(2√61) = 6/√61 = <u>(6√61) / 61</u>
- sine (sinθ) = opposite/hypotenuse = 10/(2√61) = 5/√61 = <u>(5√61) / 61</u>
- cosecant (cscθ) is reciprocal of sine (sinθ). Hence, cscθ = (2√61/10) = <u>√61/5</u>
- secant (secθ) is reciprocal of cosine (cosθ). Hence, secθ = (2√61)/12 = <u>√</u><u>61</u><u>/</u><u>6</u>
Questions can be asked through comment.
Furthermore, we can use Trigonometric Identity to find the hypotenuse instead of Pythagorean Theorem.
Hope this helps, and Happy Learning! :)

Correlation refers to the degree of correspondence or relationship between two variables.
Your answer would be $18 for 6 cans of cat food
Answer:
She gives 16 ounces to her neighbor
Step-by-step explanation:
How much did you use to make sauce
6 * 3/4 = 18/4 =9/2 = 4.5 lbs
That leaves 6-4.5 = 1.5 lbs
She give 2/3 of this to her neighbor
1.5 * 2/3
Changing the decimal to a fraction
3/2 * 2/3 = 1
She gives 1 pound to her neighbor, but we want it in ounces
16 ounces equals 1 pound
She gives 16 ounces to her neighbor
