Test Questions

Here are my questions for our test tomorrow:


1) Point P is a point on the terminal arm of an angle Θ in standard position. If cscΘ<0 and sin theta=-15/17, deterine the value of the other five trigometric functions.

2)P(Θ) is a point on the unit circle. If secΘ<0 and tan(theta)<0, and the coordinates for P are (x, 2root6/7)

a. Find the value of x
b.State the coordinates of P(Θ+pi)

Solutions:

1)step 1: Determine quadrat-(quadrat III)
step2: Find sinΘ=1-(-8/17)squared=-15/17
Step3: Determine other 4 trig. values
sec=-17/8
csc=-17/15
tan=15/8
cot=8/15

2) a.
step1: determine quadrat-(quadrat 2)
step 2:1-(2√6/7)²=-5/7
b.step1: determine quadrat-(quadrat 4)
step 2: determine integer values for x and y: (5/7, -2root6)
