Sure bro.
Let me type out a nice little lesson.
\[\sec(\theta) = \frac{1}{\cos(\theta)} \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \csc(\theta) = \frac{1}{\sin(\theta)}\]\(\cos\) is the ratio of adjacent to hypotenuse. \(\sin\) is the ratio of opposite to hypotenuse.
Okay, so what if you are given \(\sin(\theta) = \dfrac{3}{5}\)? It is clear that we have this triangle: |dw:1357374831615:dw| Now, use the Pythagorean Theorem. You have \(4\) as the remaining side.
So, \(\cos(\theta) = \dfrac{4}{5}\). Using the formulae initially given to you, you get:\[\boxed{\sec(\theta)= \dfrac{5}{4}} \rm \ \ and \ \ \boxed{\csc(\theta) = \dfrac{5}{3}} \]
