Answer 4

\(\large \sec Y=\Large\frac{1}{\cos Y}\)

Do you know the rule for cos?

Answer 5

the trignometric ratio is mean?

Answer 6

I, not is...I'm doing a lot of typos today

Answer 7

hint:
we have:
x = z cos Y

Answer 8

and: sec Y = 1/cos Y, by definition

Answer 9

@Jhannybean is really smart she should be able to help u ^_^

Answer 10

\[\sec(\theta) = \frac{1}{\cos(\theta)}\]\[\cos(\theta) = \frac{adj}{hyp}\]

Answer 11

Therefore \[\sec(Y)=\dfrac{1}{\dfrac{adj}{hyp}} \implies \frac{hyp}{adj}\]

Answer 12

Z/X
