Question

Using the following triangle, what is the cosecant of angle B?

Answer 1

If we have this basic right triangle

Answer 2

then cosecant of angle B is

csc(B) = hypotenuse/opposite

Answer 3

c/a , c/b, b/a ,a/b ?

Answer 4

what's the side opposite of angle B?

Answer 5

a?
b?
c?

Answer 6

c?

Answer 7

no, side b is opposite angle B

Answer 8

so b/a

Answer 9

c is touching angle B and is part of angle B, so c is out

c is actually the hypotenuse

Answer 10

no

Answer 11

csc(B) = hypotenuse/opposite

csc(B) = c/b

Answer 12

that's all you're doing really

Answer 13

so for cotangent of angle A?
would it be b/a ?

Answer 14

very good

Answer 15

Using the following triangle, what is the cotangent of angle A? ?

Answer 16

you just asked that?

Answer 17

cotangent < a little bit diffrent

Answer 18

oh this is for a different triangle?

Answer 19

it would be b/a like you got last time

Answer 20

oh ok it confused me a little

Answer 21

ah i see

Answer 22

Find the sine of angle A.

Answer 23

sin(A) = opposite/hypotenuse

Answer 24

sin(A) = opposite/hypotenuse

sin(A) = 12/13

Answer 25

12/13 ?

Answer 26

ok got it

Answer 27

good

Answer 28

Find the tangent of angle Y

Answer 29

you got what?

Answer 30

c/b ?

Answer 31

use the triangle you just posted

Answer 32

i mrean 6/10

Answer 33

mean*

Answer 34

no

Answer 35

that's not correct

Answer 36

6/8

Answer 37

simplified = 3/4

Answer 38

perfect

Answer 39

tan(Y) = 3/4

Answer 40

Find the cosine of angle Z.?

Answer 41

what did you get

Answer 42

3/5 ?

Answer 43

nailed it

Answer 44

cFind the secant of angle Z. 4/5 ?

Answer 45

to find the secant of Z, you just flip the fraction you got for the cosine of Z

Answer 46

this is because if

cos(Z) = a/b

then

sec(Z) = b/a

Answer 47

5/3 ?

Answer 48

good

Answer 49

Find the cosine of angle A

Answer 50

12/13?

Answer 51

that would be cos(B) since the 12 is adjacent to angle B

Answer 52

but you want cos(A)

Answer 53

5/12 ?

Answer 54

better

Answer 55

oh wait, mixed up the terms

it should be 5/13

Answer 56

cosine is adjacent over hypotenuse

Answer 57

Find the cotangent of angle Z.

Answer 58

fpr the previous one would be 4/3 ?

Answer 59

for *

Answer 60

post the pic again

Answer 61

there's too many of them lol

Answer 62

and you got what?

Answer 63

4/3

Answer 64

you got it flipped somehow

Answer 65

cot(Z) = 3/4

Answer 66

remember that cot(Z) = adj/opp

adj = 3
opp = 4

Answer 67

ohh okay got it

Answer 68

and it's all in reference to whatever angle you're working with

so if you go from Z to Y, then the adj and opp will switch

Answer 69

ok got it thanks
