Write sec in terms of sin. Theta is in the third Quadrant.

Answered by Reiny
You mean secØ and sinØ, the words sec and sin by themselves are just mathematical operators like
+, - , √, etc, they can't just stand alone.

anyway.....
secØ = 1/cosØ
but cosØ = ±√(1-sin^2 Ø)
since you state the angle to be in III

secØ = -1/√(1 - sin^2 Ø)

Thank you. I know that sec and sin cannot stand alone, I just don't know how to type the symbol for theta. Could you help me with a similar problem? It involves expressing tan(t) in terms of cos(t), where t is in the third quadrant.
