Solution Steps

Step 1: Calculate \(\cos \frac{4 \pi}{3}\)

Using the cosine addition formula: \[ \cos(a+b) = \cos(a)\cos(b) - \sin(a)\sin(b) \] we can express \(\frac{4 \pi}{3}\) as \(\frac{\pi}{3} + \pi\): \[ \cos\left(\frac{4 \pi}{3}\right) = \cos\left(\frac{\pi}{3} + \pi\right) = \cos\left(\frac{\pi}{3}\right)\cos(\pi) - \sin\left(\frac{\pi}{3}\right)\sin(\pi) \] Substituting the known values: \[ \cos\left(\frac{\pi}{3}\right) = \frac{1}{2}, \quad \cos(\pi) = -1, \quad \sin\left(\frac{\pi}{3}\right) = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}, \quad \sin(\pi) = 0 \] Thus, \[ \cos\left(\frac{4 \pi}{3}\right) = \frac{1}{2} \cdot (-1) - \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \cdot 0 = -\frac{1}{2} \]

Step 2: Calculate \(\tan \frac{4 \pi}{3}\)

Using the tangent identity: \[ \tan\left(\frac{4 \pi}{3}\right) = \frac{\sin\left(\frac{4 \pi}{3}\right)}{\cos\left(\frac{4 \pi}{3}\right)} \] We know that: \[ \sin\left(\frac{4 \pi}{3}\right) = -\sin\left(\frac{\pi}{3}\right) = -\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \] Thus, \[ \tan\left(\frac{4 \pi}{3}\right) = \frac{-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}{-\frac{1}{2}} = \sqrt{3} \]

Step 3: Calculate \(\csc \frac{4 \pi}{3}\)

Using the cosecant identity: \[ \csc\left(\frac{4 \pi}{3}\right) = \frac{1}{\sin\left(\frac{4 \pi}{3}\right)} \] We already found that: \[ \sin\left(\frac{4 \pi}{3}\right) = -\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \] Thus, \[ \csc\left(\frac{4 \pi}{3}\right) = \frac{1}{-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}} = -\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}} = -\frac{2\sqrt{3}}{3} \]

Final Answer

A. \( \cos \frac{4 \pi}{3} = -\frac{1}{2} \)
A. \( \tan \frac{4 \pi}{3} = \sqrt{3} \)
A. \( \csc \frac{4 \pi}{3} = -\frac{2\sqrt{3}}{3} \)
