You are sailing from your lakeshore cabin to a marina 60º north of east and 0.5 miles across the lake. On your return trip, you

decide to sail directly south and then west to get back to your cabin. Which of the following expressions uses the complementary angle of 60° to determine how far you would travel on your trip west? a. 0.5cos30° b. 0.5cos60° c. 0.5sin30° d. 0.5sin60°

Complimentary angle is 90-60 = 30.

The length going west is opposite the 30 degree angle, therefore the correct trig ratio to use is sine.

sine = opp/hyp = west/0.5

west = 0.5sin(30)

Three trigonometric functions for a given angle are shown below. cosecant theta = thirteen-twelfths; secant theta = Negative thi
Kay [80]

Answer:

(–5, 12) is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following values:

cosec\theta = \dfrac{13}{12}\\sec\theta=-\dfrac{13}{5}\\cot\theta =-\dfrac{5}{12}

Now, we know the following identities:

sin \theta = \dfrac{1}{cosec\theta}\\cos \theta = \dfrac{1}{sec\theta}\\tan \theta = \dfrac{1}{cot\theta}

Now, the values are:

sin\theta = \dfrac{12}{13}\\cos\theta=-\dfrac{5}{13}\\tan\theta =-\dfrac{12}{5}

Sine value is positive and cos, tan values are negative.

It can be clearly observed that \theta is in 2nd quadrant.

2nd quadrant means, the value of x will be negative and y will be positive.

Let us have a look at the value of tan\theta:

tan\theta  = \dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}\\OR\\tan\theta  = \dfrac{y-coordinate}{x-coordinate} = -\dfrac{12}{5}\\\therefore y = 12,\\x = -5

Please refer to the attached image for clear understanding and detailed explanation.

Hence, the correct answer is coordinate (x,y) is (–5, 12)
