What is the reciprocal function of sin a?
Since sin(a)=opposite/hypotenuse, the reciprocal function is that function which is equal to hypotenuse/opposite. This is "cosecant", or csc(a). The reciprocal of sin(a) is csc(a). I will solve all your math problems. Check my profile for more info.
Examples of operations of functions in trigonometry?
Trigonometry includes 12 baisic functions. Sine, Cosine, and Tangent are the three most baisic. Each of those functions has a reciprocal. Cosine's reciprocal is Secant, Sine reciprocal is Cosecant, and Tangent's reciprocal is Cotangent. Each of those six functions has an inverse funcion called Inverse Sine, Cos etc... or Arcsine, Arcosine, Arcsecant, etc.... The shorthand for each function is sin, caos, tan, sec, csc, cot. The inverses have a -1 notation like sin-1.
What is the reciprocal of the tangent?
The reciprocal of the tangent is the cotangent, or cot. We might write 1/tan = cot.
What is the Sine reciprocal?
Cosecant
Can you help me prove math trig identities?
these are the identities i need sinΘcosΘ=cosΘ sec^4Θ-tan^4Θ=sec²Θcsc²Θ (1+sec²Θ)/(1-secΘ)=(cosΘ-1)/(cosΘ)
What is the reciprocal of 25 feet per second?
0.25 no, 0.25 (or 1/4), is the reciprocal of 4. the reciprocal of 25 is 1/25
What is a reciprocal trig function?
A reciprocal trigonometric function is the ratio of the reciprocal of a trigonometric function to either the sine, cosine, or tangent function. The reciprocal of the sine function is the cosecant function, the reciprocal of the cosine function is the secant function, and the reciprocal of the tangent function is the cotangent function. These functions are useful in solving trigonometric equations and graphing trigonometric functions.
What is the reciprocal of a cosine?
1/cos(x)=sec(x). sec is short for secant.
What is the cos reciprocal?
The reciprocal of cosine is secant (short form: sec), which is the hypotenuse length divided by the adjacent length.
What is the reciprocal of a tangent?
It is the cotangent function.
Which parent function is represented by the graph?
Reciprocal parent function
Is the inverse function of secant is the cosecant function?
No. The inverse of the secant is called the arc-secant. The relation between the secant and the cosecant is similar to the relation between the sine and the cosine - they are somehow related, but they are not inverse functions. The secant is the reciprocal of the cosine (sec x = 1 / cos x). The cosecant is the reciprocal of the sine (cos x = 1 / sin x).
What is the reciprocal function of sin a?

Real life application to the reciprocal function?
There are no real life applications of reciprocal functions
What does a reciprocal function look like?

How do you find the sec of a 38 degree angle?
Find the cosine of 38 degrees and then find its reciprocal.
Why will sin and cosecant have the same sign?
The cosecant is the reciprocal of the sine function. Now, the reciprocal of a positive number is positive, and the reciprocal of a negative number is negative.
