Sketch a triangle given a trig angle then determine remaining trig functions of angle

The video tutorial explains how to evaluate the angle of cotangent Theta when it equals 5. It begins by discussing the relationship between cotangent and tangent, then sets up a right triangle to solve the problem. The Pythagorean theorem is used to find the hypotenuse, and various trigonometric functions are calculated. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of creating a triangle and using the Pythagorean theorem to find missing sides, allowing for the evaluation of trigonometric functions.

What is the reciprocal of the tangent function?

• Cotangent

• Sine

• Cosine

• Secant

If cotangent Theta is 5, what are the adjacent and opposite sides of the triangle?

• Adjacent: 1, Opposite: 1

• Adjacent: 5, Opposite: 5

• Adjacent: 5, Opposite: 1

• Adjacent: 1, Opposite: 5

Which theorem is used to find the hypotenuse in a right triangle?

• Pythagorean Theorem

• Sine Rule

• Cosine Rule

• Tangent Theorem

What is the sine of Theta if the opposite side is 1 and the hypotenuse is sqrt(26)?

• 1/5

• 1/sqrt(26)

• sqrt(26)/5

• 5/sqrt(26)

How do you rationalize the denominator of 1/sqrt(26)?

• Multiply by sqrt(26)/sqrt(26)

• Multiply by 26/26

• Multiply by 1/26

• Multiply by 5/5
