I'm finding the exact values of the following expressions.

1. $sin(\frac{-7pi} {3})$ = $\frac{\sqrt3}{2}$

2. $sec(\frac{-21pi}{4})$= $\frac{-\sqrt1}{2}$

3. $cot(\frac{25pi}{2})$=Undefined

4. $csc(\frac{-101pi}{6})$= $-1$

5. $cos({-126Pi})$= Undefined

Thank You
Jason

2. $sec(\frac{-21p}{4})$= $\frac{-\sqrt1}{2}$ << SiMoon says : it's rather $-\sqrt{\frac 12}=-\frac{2}{\sqrt{2}}$ eh ? Check the code =)

3. $cot(\frac{25p}{2})$=Undefined << SiMoon says : is 0 undefined ? $\cot=\frac{\cos}{\sin} \quad \quad \frac{25 \pi}{2}=6*(2 \pi)+ \frac{\pi}{2}$ ---> ...

4. $csc(\frac{-101p}{6})$= $-1$ << SiMoon says : I find -2

5. $cos({-126P})$= Undefined << SiMoon says : I find 1

Thank You

Chris says it's in the 4th quadrant. -7pi/3=-2pi-pi/3 -----> sine is still negative (As Moo correctly stated)

What I did was a little something called copy and paste. (Sun)

When I quoted you to post my response. I saw just this : (Tongueout)

However, I thought I could copy what you quoted and then put it in the quote tags...and it worked... :D

When I copy & paste, it doesn't copy the latex stuff :(

For #2. the point are $-\frac{\sqrt1}{2} and \frac{1}{2} = \frac{1}{y}$ Which gives the answer $\frac{-\sqrt1}{2}$, Right?

I don't see how you get -2 for the 2nd problem?
