Answer:

in(θ) =

✔ -15/17

cos(θ) =

✔ 8/17

tan(θ) =

✔ -15/8

csc(θ) =

✔ -17/15

sec(θ) =

✔ 17/8

cot(θ) =

✔ -8/15

check the picture below.


\bf sin(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{opposite}{-15}}{\stackrel{hypotenuse}{17}}\qquad cos(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{adjacent}{8}}{\stackrel{hypotenuse}{17}}\qquad tan(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{opposite}{-15}}{\stackrel{adjacent}{8}} \\\\\\ cot(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{adjacent}{8}}{\stackrel{opposite}{-15}}\qquad sec(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{hypotenuse}{17}}{\stackrel{adjacent}{8}}\qquad csc(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{hypotenuse}{17}}{\stackrel{opposite}{-15}}
Angle θ is in standard position. If (8, -15) is on the terminal ray of angle θ, find-example-1
