The exact values for the expressions are

sin(θ/2) = 16√65/65

cos(θ/2) = -2√65/65

tan(θ/2) = -8

How determine trigonometric ratios identities of half- angle.

Given that

cscθ = 65/16, 5π/2 < θ < 3π

cscθ = 1/sinθ

sinθ = 16/65

Using Pythagorean identity

cosθ = √1 - sin²θ)

= +-√1 - (16/65)²

= +-√1 - 256/4225

= +-√3969/4225

= +-63/65

θ is in the second quadrant 5π/2 < θ < 3π

θ is negative

θ = -63/65

half-angle identity

sin(θ/2) = +-√(1-coθ)/2

= +-√(1+63/65)/2

= +-√128/65/2

= √256/65

= +-16/√65

= 16√65/65

Sin(θ/2) = 16√65/65 sine is positive in the second quadrant.

cos(θ/2) = +-√(1 + cosθ)/2

= +-√(1 -63/65)/2

= +-√2/65/2

= +-√4/65

= +-2/√65 = 2√65/65

Cosθ is negative in the 2nd quadrant so,

cos(θ/2) = -2√65/65

tan(θ/2) = sinθ/(1 + cosθ)

= (16/65)/(1 - 63/65

= (16/65)/2/65

= 16/65* 65/2

= 8

tanθ is negative in the second quadrant

tan(θ/2) = -8
