Question
evaluate the six trigonometric function of $\theta$. (hint: sketch the angle and use your unit circle) if the ratio is undefined, enter dne.
$\theta = 0^{\circ}$
$\
$
Step1: Recall the definitions of trigonometric functions
On the unit circle \(x = \cos\theta\), \(y=\sin\theta\), \(\tan\theta=\frac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}\), \(\csc\theta=\frac{1}{\sin\theta}\), \(\sec\theta=\frac{1}{\cos\theta}\), \(\cot\theta=\frac{\cos\theta}{\sin\theta}\). For \(\theta = 0^{\circ}\), the point on the unit - circle is \((x,y)=(1,0)\).
Step2: Calculate \(\sin\theta\)
Since \(y = \sin\theta\) and \(y = 0\) when \(\theta=0^{\circ}\), \(\sin(0^{\circ})=0\).
Step3: Calculate \(\csc\theta\)
Since \(\csc\theta=\frac{1}{\sin\theta}\) and \(\sin(0^{\circ}) = 0\), \(\csc(0^{\circ})=\text{DNE}\) (division by zero is undefined).
Step4: Calculate \(\cos\theta\)
Since \(x=\cos\theta\) and \(x = 1\) when \(\theta = 0^{\circ}\), \(\cos(0^{\circ})=1\).
Step5: Calculate \(\sec\theta\)
Since \(\sec\theta=\frac{1}{\cos\theta}\) and \(\cos(0^{\circ})=1\), \(\sec(0^{\circ})=\frac{1}{1}=1\).
Step6: Calculate \(\tan\theta\)
Since \(\tan\theta=\frac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}\) and \(\sin(0^{\circ}) = 0\), \(\cos(0^{\circ})=1\), \(\tan(0^{\circ})=\frac{0}{1}=0\).
Step7: Calculate \(\cot\theta\)
Since \(\cot\theta=\frac{\cos\theta}{\sin\theta}\) and \(\sin(0^{\circ}) = 0\), \(\cot(0^{\circ})=\text{DNE}\) (division by zero is undefined).
