the complete question in the attached figure

Part 1) find sec (theta)

we know that

sec (theta)=1/ cos (theta)

cos (theta)=adjacent side angle theta/hypotenuse

adjacent side angle theta=5

hypotenuse=13

so

cos (theta)=5/13

sec (theta)=1/(5/13)-------> sec (theta)=13/5

the answer Part 1) is

sec (theta) = 13/5

Part 2)simplify sec(theta)*cos (theta)

sec (theta)=13/5

cos (theta)=5/13

so

sec(theta)*cos (theta)=(13/5)*(5/13)----> 1

the answer part 2) is 1

Part 3)simplify cot(theta)/cos(theta)

cot (theta)=5/12

cos (theta)=5/13

so

cot(theta)/cos(theta)=(5/12)/(5/13)----> 13/12

we know that

sin (theta)=opposite angle theta/hypotenuse

opposite side angle theta=12

hypotenuse=13

sin (theta)=12/13

csc (theta)=1/sin (theta)------> csc (theta)=1/(12/13)----> csc (theta)=13/12

therefore

cot(theta)/cos(theta)=csc (theta)

the answer Part 3) is

csc (theta)

Part 4)simplify cot(theta)*sin(theta)

cot (theta)=5/12

sin (theta)=12/13

so

cot(theta)*sin(theta)=(5/12)*(12/13)----> 5/13

cos (theta) =5/13

therefore

cot(theta)*sin(theta)=cos (theta)

the answer part 4) is

cos (theta)
