Question

given sec(theta)= 5... find cot(90-theta)

Answer 1

do you know what sec(theta) represents in terms of cos(theta)?

Answer 2

yesh.. it represents its recioprical

Answer 3

pardon the spelling

Answer 4

:) thats ok - we all make mishtakes :D

Answer 5

asnaseer why did u report me

Answer 6

wlbrt316 were busy in here..

Answer 7

ok, so you know:\[\sec(\theta)=\frac{1}{\cos(\theta)}\]which means you now know:\[\cos(\theta)=\frac{1}{\sec(\theta)}=\frac{1}{5}\]

Answer 8

great so now we know cos(theta). but i dont see how that helps us find cot(90-theta)
