If sin ∅ = -sqrt{3} OVER 2 and π < ∅ < 3π OVER 2, what are the values of cos ∅ and tan ∅? What is ∅ in degrees and radians? Be sure to show and explain all work.


Sagot :

Step-by-step explanation:

sin ∅ = -(√3)/2

Note that

cos²∅ + sin²∅ = 1

cos²∅ = 1 - sin²∅

= 1 - (-√3 / 2)²

= 1 - (-√3)²/ 2²

= 1 - 3/4

= 1/4

cos²∅ = 1/4

Taking square root of both sides

cos∅ = 1/2

Note that tan∅ = sin∅/cos∅

therefore, tan∅ = -(√3)/2 ÷ 1/2

= -(√3)/2 × 2/1

= -√3

tan∅ = -√3

Since sin∅ = -√3 /2

Then ∅ = -60⁰

The value of ∅ for the given range (third quadrant) is 240⁰.

NB: sin∅ = sin(180-∅)

Also, since 180⁰ is π radians, then ∅ = 4π/3
