In what mode should I calculate CSC(co secant) in my calculator?

In many calculus classes, I've seen radians being the default mode. In this special case, it doesn't matter because 0 radians = 0 degrees, so they're both approaching 0.

Also, keep in mind that \[\Large \csc(x) = \frac{1}{\sin(x)}\]

SO sinx equaling zero is just a rule im going to have to memorize right? In that case shouldnt 0/0 pose a problem? since the denominator is sinx The answer was infinity by the way

wait sorry brain fart ignore last message

OpenStudy (bee_see):

If you input 1/sin(0) into your calculator, you'll get an error message, which means that the limit doesn't exist. In other words, infinity.
