Hope this helps :)

Okay so first just keep in mind the trig formulas

Sintheta= perpendicular/hypotenuse

Costheta=base/hypotenuse

Tantheta= perpendicular/base

Just remember it by " some people have curly brown hair through proper brushing"

And the Pythagorean Theorem

Perpendicular^2+Base^2=Hypotenuse^2

Okay so now our base length is x and perpendicular length is y and hypotenuse is
√(x^2+y^2)

for the first three just add the information above in the answer

a)
\frac{y}{\sqrt{x^(2)+y^(2)}}

b)
(x)/(√(x^2+y^2))

c)
(y)/(x)

For the last three, I personally havent done them properly yet but you just reverse the formula if that makes sense

Csctheta=hypotenuse/perpendicular

Sectheta=hypotenuse/base

Cottheta=base/perpendicular

so just add the values we have for base, perpendicular and hypotenuse to these formulas now

d)
(√(x^2+y^2) )/(y)

e)
(√(x^2+y^2))/(x)

f)
(x)/(y)
