if i have sec t= (whatever) and the terminal point is in quad 3, which trigs are going to be negative or positive?

quadrant 3 is here |dw:1330469183553:dw|

since you are to the left, cosine is negative since you are down, sine is also negative

OpenStudy (anonymous):

tangent will be positive because the ratio of two negativef numbers is positive, likewise for cotangent
