I'm having some problems with the CAST rule and the 4 quadrants.
i think i have the basics worked out.
the thing i don't know how to do is answers questions such as:
SinX-1 = 30, for example.
could anyone help me to understand this?

I think we have a problem here. I think that this is the equation you meanQuote:

As far as the CAST rule it tells us what trig functions are positive and where.
It starts in quadrant three where C=cosine is positive. Moving counter clockwise to quadrant one A= All are positive. Next to quadrant two S=sine is positive. Finally, to quadrant three where tangent is positive.
I hope this helps.
