Given a trig equation, create a triangle to evaluate six trigonometric functions

The video tutorial covers the basics of trigonometric functions, starting with an introduction to cotangent and setting up a triangle. It then demonstrates how to find the hypotenuse using the Pythagorean theorem. The instructor explains how to calculate sine and cosine, including rationalizing denominators. Finally, the video covers reciprocal trigonometric functions such as tangent, cosecant, secant, and cotangent, providing a comprehensive overview of these concepts.

What is the value of the hypotenuse if the sides of a right triangle are 5 and 3?

• sqrt 25

• sqrt 50

• sqrt 15

• sqrt 34

How do you express the sine of an angle in a right triangle?

• Adjacent over Hypotenuse

• Opposite over Hypotenuse

• Adjacent over Opposite

• Hypotenuse over Opposite

What is the cosine of Theta if the adjacent side is 5 and the hypotenuse is sqrt 34?

• sqrt 34 / 5

• 3 / sqrt 34

• 5 / sqrt 34

• 5 / 34

What is the tangent of Theta if the opposite side is 3 and the adjacent side is 5?

• 5 / sqrt 34

• sqrt 34 / 5

• 3 / 5

• 5 / 3

How do you find the secant of an angle in a right triangle?

• Reciprocal of cosine

• Reciprocal of cotangent

• Reciprocal of sine

• Reciprocal of tangent
