Question

can someone help me figure out this question?

Find the exact value o the following function. Explain the steps you take to find the value

The function is :
sec(17pi/6)

Answer 1

Note, for all trigonometric functions, sec(x) = sex(x + 2pi)

Therefore, sec(17pi/6) = sec(5pi/6)

sec(5pi/6) = 1 / (cos(5pi/6))

cos(5pi/6) = -rad(3)/2

sec(5pi/6) = -2/rad(3)

= -2rad(3) / 3
