Solution Steps

Step 1: Calculate the radius \(r\)

The radius \(r\) is calculated using the Pythagorean theorem: \(r = \sqrt{24^2 + 7^2} = 25\).

Step 2: Calculate the trigonometric functions

Using the definitions of trigonometric ratios in a right-angled triangle, we find:

  • \(\sin \theta = \frac{y}{r} = 0.28\)
  • \(\cos \theta = \frac{x}{r} = 0.96\)
  • \( an \theta = \frac{y}{x} = 0.29\) if \(x \neq 0\).
Step 3: Calculate the reciprocal trigonometric functions

For the reciprocal trigonometric functions, we find:

  • \(\cot \theta = \frac{1}{\tan \theta} = 3.43\) if \(y \neq 0\).
  • \(\sec \theta = \frac{1}{\cos \theta} = 1.04\) if \(x \neq 0\).
  • \(\csc \theta = \frac{1}{\sin \theta} = 3.57\) if \(y \neq 0\).

Final Answer:

The trigonometric values for the point \((24, 7)\) are:

  • \(\sin \theta = 0.28\)
  • \(\cos \theta = 0.96\)
  • \( an \theta = 0.29\)
  • \(\cot \theta = 3.43\)
  • \(\sec \theta = 1.04\)
  • \(\csc \theta = 3.57\)
