Find the values of x in [0, 360°) which satisfy the
equation below.
2 cota x = -3 SC X

Given :

An equation 2cot x = -3sec x .

To Find :

the values of x in [0, 360°) which satisfy the given equation.

Solution :

Converting cot x and sec x in the form of sin x and cos x.

Neglecting sin x = 2 because sin x cannot be greater than 1.

x = π - π/6, π + π/6

x = 5π/6 and x = 7π /6

Therefore, the values of x in [0,360°) is  5π/6 and x = 7π /6 .

sec ф = 5/3 (quadrant 4)

let x = base

y = perp

z = hypotenuse

sec ф = hypotenuse/base = 5/3

⇒ z = 5 and x = 3

finding y:

z² = x² + y²

5² = 3² + y²

y² = 25-9

y² = 16

y = 4

now finding all other geometric functions of theta:

sin ф = y/z = 4/5

sin ф = -4/5 (sin is negative in the 4th quadrant)

cos ф = x/z = 3/5

cos ф = 3/5 (cos is positive in 4th quadrant)

tan ф = y/x = 4/3

tan ф = -4/3 (tan is negative in 4th quadrant)

cosec ф = z/y = 5/4

cosec ф = -5/4 (cosec is negative in the 4th quadrant)

cot ф = x/y = 3/4

tan ф = -3/4 (tan is negative in 4th quadrant)

the answer is: the length is 5/6 yards.
