Elementary trigonometric functions
After having introduced the first three trigonometric functions of a given angle , now we are going to introduce their reciprocals.
Secant:
This is the reciprocal of the noted .
Let’s look at the following graph.
Finally the is:
Cosecant:
This is the reciprocal of the noted .
Let’s look at the following graph.
by AA
Finally the is:
Cotangent:
This is the reciprocal of the noted .
Let’s look at the following graph.
by AA
Finally the is:
We can also see that:
by AA
We get:
