Find tan 0 if csc 0 = -√5/2 is in the third quadrant.
A. 1/2
B.-2
C.-1/2
D. 2

Sagot :

Answer:

D. 2

Step-by-step explanation:

soh cah toa rule

sine equals opposite over hypotenuse,

cosine equals adjacent over hypotenuse, and

tangent equals opposite over adjacent

csc is 1/sin which is hypotenuse over opposite

if csc is -√5/2 then

hypotenuse is -√5

opposite is 2

3rd quadrant on a graph is bottom left

both x and y values are negative

hypotenuse means its a triangle

pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a^2 + 2^2 = (-√5)^2

a^2 + 4 = 5

a = 1 = adjacent

tangent equals opposite over adjacent

tan is 2 / 1 which is 2

third quadrant means it's still positive

because tan is positive in quadrant 3
