Explain the difference between using the trigonometric ratios (sin, cos, tan) to solve for a missing angle in a right triangle versus using the reciprocal ratios (sec, csc, cot). You must use complete sentences and any evidence needed (such as an example) to prove your point of view.

The difference between using the trigonometric ratios (sin, cos, tan) to solve for a missing angle in a right triangle versus using the reciprocal ratios (sec, csc, cot) would be the orientation and location of the angle of reference.

I put that but I guess she found that it was wrong. She wants me to specifically focus on how to find angle measurements.
