OpenStudy (loser66):

hence \(tan \theta =\dfrac{-\sqrt 3}{5}\), find \(\theta\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm confused

OpenStudy (loser66):

put it in calculator, you have the angle is -19.1 degree, let take -19,

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what are we finding here?

OpenStudy (loser66):

finding the angle.

OpenStudy (loser66):

after having the angle, you can find the trigs like sin, cos, tan, cot, sec, csc, right?

OpenStudy (loser66):

Ok, I guide you more

OpenStudy (loser66):

|dw:1423255810491:dw| and we know that it is in the 4 quadrant, right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i know that 11pi/6 is 330 degree

OpenStudy (loser66):

if you want to take the positive angle, it 's perfectly ok, but how can you get that angle? I mean 330 degree??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nvm. continue with what you were saying. I'm going to confuse myself more.

OpenStudy (loser66):

I need find the angle between x-axis with the terminal line, that is|dw:1423256226683:dw|
