cosecant(x) = 1/sin(x) = -1

sin(x) = -1

x = 270 degrees

(plus or minus any whole multiple of 360 degrees)

Can the co-secant of an angle be less than 1?

No, the co-secant (csc) of an angle cannot be less than 1 or greater than -1. This is because the co-secant is defined as the reciprocal of the sine function (csc(θ) = 1/sin(θ)). Since the sine of an angle ranges from -1 to 1, the co-secant will either be greater than or equal to 1 when sine is positive or less than or equal to -1 when sine is negative.

How are sine and cosine and secant related?

Sine and cosine are cofunctions, which means that their angles are complementary. Consequently, sin (90° - x) = cos x. Secant is the reciprocal of cosine so that sec x = 1/(cos x). Knowing these properties of trigonometric functions, among others, will really help you in other advance math courses.

What is an secant in math?

Secant is a trignometric function. In a right triangle, the secant of an angle is the hypotenuse over the adjacent side. It is also the inverse of cosine. For example secant(x) = 1/cos(x)
