Answer:

D 5/3

Explanation:

Secθ= Hypotenuse/Adjacent

Secθ=10/6

Simplify: 10/6 -->5/3

Ans: D 5/3

remember your six trigonometric functions:

Sinθ=Opp/Hyp -->Cscθ=Adj/Hyp

Cosθ=Adj/Hyp -->Secθ=Hyp/Adj

Tanθ=Opp/Adj-->Cotθ=Opp?Adj

It is basically the opposite of each other, don't forget when you are at the last step you simplify! never forget. Also working with square roots will be a bit tricky when converting to Csc/ Sec/ Cot. Just noting you that Square roots don't belong in denominators!
