This question has been asked before but i was very confused. So if anyone could help me I would appreciate it. Given Sinx=3/5 and x is in quadrant 2, what is the value of tan(x/2)??

if it in quadrant 2
then it will b 
sin x=-3/5

3/8

anonymous · Answer

if sinx=3/5  can you figure out what is cosx by using sin^x+cos^x=1    
or you can just simply draw a pic to figure out what is the adjacent side is by using Pythagorean theorem

anonymous · Answer

then use half angle identities after you know both sinx and cosx
