Exam questions on Secant, cosecant and cotangent

  1. The angle θ\theta is acute and sin⁡θ=513\sin\theta=\frac{5}{13}.
    Find the exact value of sec⁡θ+cosec⁡ θ\sec\theta+\operatorname{cosec}\,\theta.2 marks
  2. Throughout, xx is measured in radians, and each function is considered only where it is defined.
    Write cosec⁡ xcot⁡x\dfrac{\operatorname{cosec}\,x}{\cot x} as a single trigonometric function.2 marks
  3. Angles are measured in degrees and 0≤θ<3600\le\theta<360.
