Find sin theta if cot theta = -2 and cos theta < 0
1 answer:
cot(<em>θ</em>) = cos(<em>θ</em>)/sin(<em>θ</em>)
So if both cot(<em>θ</em>) and cos(<em>θ</em>) are negative, that means sin(<em>θ</em>) must be positive.
Recall that
cot²(<em>θ</em>) + 1 = csc²(<em>θ</em>) = 1/sin²(<em>θ</em>)
so that
sin²(<em>θ</em>) = 1/(cot²(<em>θ</em>) + 1)
sin(<em>θ</em>) = 1 / √(cot²(<em>θ</em>) + 1)
Plug in cot(<em>θ</em>) = -2 and solve for sin(<em>θ</em>) :
sin(<em>θ</em>) = 1 / √((-2)² + 1)
sin(<em>θ</em>) = 1/√(5)
