Solution
Solution Steps
To find the exact value of the remaining five trigonometric functions given tanθ=29, we can use the following steps:
Use the definition of tanθ to find sinθ and cosθ.
Use the Pythagorean identity to find sinθ and cosθ.
Calculate cscθ, secθ, and cotθ using the reciprocal identities.
Solution Approach
Given tanθ=29, we know tanθ=cosθsinθ.
Assume sinθ=29cosθ.
Use the Pythagorean identity: sin2θ+cos2θ=1.
Solve for cosθ and then find sinθ.
Use the reciprocal identities to find cscθ, secθ, and cotθ.
Step 1: Given Information
We are given that tanθ=29.
Step 2: Express sinθ in terms of cosθ
Using the definition of tangent, we have:
tanθ=cosθsinθ⟹sinθ=29cosθ
Step 3: Use the Pythagorean Identity
Using the Pythagorean identity:
sin2θ+cos2θ=1
Substitute sinθ=29cosθ:
(29cosθ)2+cosθ2=1⟹29cos2θ+cos2θ=1⟹30cos2θ=1⟹cos2θ=301
Thus:
cosθ=3030
Step 4: Calculate sinθ
Using sinθ=29cosθ:
sinθ=29⋅3030=30870
Step 5: Calculate the Remaining Trigonometric Functions
Using the reciprocal identities:
cscθ=sinθ1=87030=29870secθ=cosθ1=3030=30cotθ=tanθ1=291=2929
