Homework Help: Math(Correction)

Posted by Mark on Tuesday, March 23, 2010 at 5:26pm.

Use the given function values and trigonometric identities (including the relationship between a trigonometric function and its cofunction of a complementary angle) to find the indicated trigonometric functions.

Sorry for the mistake. They are two seperate functions and i need to find a through d

sec Q = 5 tan = 2sqrt6

a) cos Q b) cotQ

c) cot(90 degrees - Q) d) sin Q

Mark, I see no change in the way you typed your question.
I objected to the line

sec Q = 5 tan = 2sqrt6

which makes no sense.
First of all 5tan is incomplete, there is no angle. I assumed it was 5tanQ
Secondly, the statement led to a contradiction, as I showed in the other post

I think what Mark means is that

Sec(theta)=5
Tan(theta)=2(sqrt of 6)
Which would make more sense :)
