To find each answer, we just have to solve for t. It is important to use the important angles in trigonometry to provide an exact answer.


\begin{gathered} \sin t=-\frac{\sqrt[]{2}}{2} \\ t=\sin ^(-1)(-\frac{\sqrt[]{2}}{2})=225 \end{gathered}

The first answer is t = 225°.


\begin{gathered} \cos t=\frac{\sqrt[]{3}}{2} \\ t=\cos ^(-1)(\frac{\sqrt[]{3}}{2}) \\ t=30 \end{gathered}

The second answer is 30°.


\begin{gathered} \tan t=-\frac{1}{\sqrt[]{3}} \\ t=\tan ^(-1)(-\frac{1}{\sqrt[]{3}}) \\ t=150 \end{gathered}

The third answer is t = 150°.
