Question

a right angle has an acute angle theta such that csc theta =7/3 find tan

Answer 1

Same kind of question as before, except it blatantly tells you that you have a triangle whose csc is 7/3. So you would just need to set up a triangle, find the missing side and getthe tangent.

Answer 2

csc is 1/y

Answer 3

Well, what is csc in terms of the sidesof a triangle?

Answer 4

1/3

Answer 5

opposite hypotenuse

Answer 6

Opposite and hypotenuse is sine, so since cosecant is the reciprocal, the sides of the triangle we want are hypotenuse over opposite. Since the problem tells us csc is 7/3, we can assume that 7 is the hypotenuse and that 3 is the opposite side. That kind of make sense?

Answer 7

so is the answer (2sqrt 10)
/3

Answer 8

tangent is opposite over adjacent. Looks liek you got something flipped.
