Question

How would you set up and solve, csc(120)?

Answer 1

@lyndseyjanelle ?????

Answer 2

Where did the 90 come from?

Answer 3

you could convert \(\csc(120) \) into \(\Large \frac{1}{sin(120)} \)

Answer 4

Sin 120 is in the quad II

Answer 5

So the final answer is sin 120?

Answer 6

If you mean "solve" as in exact value, then no, you need to find what 1/sin(120) is

Answer 7

final answer is \[\frac{ 1 }{ \sin 120 }\]
plug the value of sin 120
\[\sin 120 = \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{ 2 }\]
know tht???

Answer 8

Way to steal my answer xD

But yes, if you know the degrees you will see that 60 is the reference angle for 120.



So draw a 30-60-90 triangle:
