Find the exact value of the remaining trigonometric functions given: Tan x = Undefined Sin x > 0
1 answer:
Answer:
- sin(x) = 1
- cos(x) = 0
- cot(x) = 0
- csc(x) = 1
- sec(x) = undefined
Step-by-step explanation:
The tangent function can be considered to be the ratio of the sine and cosine functions:
tan(x) = sin(x)/cos(x)
It will be undefined where cos(x) = 0. The values of x where that occurs are odd multiples of π. The smallest such multiple is x=π/2. The value of the sine function there is positive: sin(π/2) = 1.
The corresponding trig function values are ...
tan(x) = undefined (where sin(x) >0)
sin(x) = 1
cos(x) = 0
__
And the reciprocal function values at x=π/2 are ...
cot(x) = 0 . . . . . . 1/tan(x)
csc(x) = 1 . . . . . . .1/sin(x)
sec(x) = undefined . . . . . 1/cos(x)

Answer:
Before we graph we know that the slope, mx, could be read as
. To graph the the equation of the line, we begin at the point (0,0). From that point, because our rise is negative (-1), instead of moving upwards or vertically, we will move downards. Therefore, from point 0, we will vertically move downwards one time. Now, our point is on point -1 on the y-axis. Now, we have 2 as our run. From point -1, we move to the right two times. We land on point (2,-1). Because we need various points to graph this equation, we must continue on. In the end, the graph will look like the first graph given.
For the equation y = 2, the line will be plainly horizontal. Why? Because x has no value in the equation. The variable does not exist in this linear equation. Therefore, it will look like the second graph below. We graph this by plotting the point, (0,2), on the y-axis.
