find the exact value of cot(11pi/6) cos(11pi/6) csc(11pi/6)
|dw:1338857341956:dw|
cot = adj /opp negative in quadrant 4 cos = adjacent/hyp positive in quadrant 4 csc= hyp /opposite negative in quadrant 4
thank you sooooo much
\[11\Pi/6\] Belongs to a certain family of angles. The families are \[\Pi/4, \Pi/6, \Pi/3\] So if you have a value such as \[58\Pi/6\] then it belongs to the pi/6 family and it's sin,cos,csc,sec,tan would be the same as that of pi/6. |dw:1338857686988:dw| |dw:1338857774526:dw| Those two triangles are important in such problems because they should help you find sine,cos,tan and so on of the families I named above. So after you have the sin, cos or whatever you're looking for, check what quadrant the angle you had initially lies in.|dw:1338857889878:dw| So in the first quadrant, all(cos,sin,tan,csc,sec) are positive, in the second only sine is positive, in the 3rd tan is positive and in the 4th, only cos is positive.
