Which angle has a negative sine and a positive cosine?

All the angles in 4th quadrant have positive cosine and negative sine e.g. 280,290,300,310...etc.


Why is the tangent positive on quadrant III?

The tangent function is equal to the sine divided by the cosine. In quadrant III, both sin and cos are negative - and a negative divided by another negative is positive. Thus it follows that the tangent is positive in QIII.


What is the derivative of negative cosine?

The derivative of negative cosine is positive sine.


What quadrant does -14-13i lie?

It will be in 3rd Quadrant because cosine and sine both are negative in 3rd Quadrant


What is the difference between negative sine and cosine graphs and positive sine and cosine graphs?

The negative sine graph and the positive sine graph have opposite signs: when one is negative, the other is positive - by exactly the same amount. The sine function is said to be an odd function. The two graphs for cosine are the same. The cosine function is said to be even.


How could you tell if tan is negative or positive in a quadrant Example in quadrant II cos - and sin is plus but what is tan?

There's a mnemonic for this: All Students Take Calculus. Starting in the first quadrant, and moving counterclockwise until the last, give each quadrant the first letter of thos words in order. A represents all 3, s represents sine, t represents tangent, and c represents cosine. If the letter appears in a quadrant, it is positive there. If not, it is negative there.In quadrant 2, only sine is positive.


Why is the sine positive in quadrants 1 and 2?

Sine is = to opposite side/hypotenuse, using a triangle with sides of opposite ~ 1, adjacent ~ 1 and hypotenuse ~ root(2), hypotenuse is always positive, hypotenuse = root(adjacent.squared * opposite.squared) if either is negative, squaring them brings it back to a positive and as the opposite side is the rise from the base line ( 0 degrees through to 180 degrees) it is positive in both quadrants 1 and 2 in quadrant 1, sine= 1/root(2) which is positive in quadrant 2, sine= 1/root(2) which is positive in quadrant 3, sine= -1/root(2) which is negative in quadrant 4, sine= -1/root(2) which is negative so sine is positive in quadrants 1 and 2 and is negative in 3 and 4


What are the Differentiate the sine wave and cosine wave?

The differential of the sine function is the cosine function while the differential of the cosine function is the negative of the sine function.


What is the anti derivative of negative sine?

The anti derivative of negative sine is cosine.


Why cos negative results positive?

It doesn't really. Depending on the exact value of the argument, the cosine function can give both positive and negative results, for a negative argument. As to "why" the sine, or cosine, functions have certain values, just look at the function definition. Take points on a unit circle. The sine represents the y-coordinate for any point on the circle, while the cosine represents the x-coordinate for such a point. (There are also other ways to define the sine and the cosine functions.)


What are the measure of the angles in quadrant 1?

The angles in quadrant one measure between 0 degrees and 90 degrees. In radians, that's between 0 and pi/2. Quadrant one is the quadrant where both X and Y (or cosine theta and sine theta) are positive.


Why does Sine Theta equal Sine 180 minus Theta?

When you subtract theta from 180 ( if theta is between 90 degrees and 180 degrees) you will get the reference angle of theta; the results of sine theta and sine of its reference angle will be the same and only the sign will be different depends on which quadrant the angle is located. Ex. 150 degrees' reference angle will be 30 degrees (180-150) sin150=1/2 (2nd quadrant); sin30=1/2 (1st quadrant) 1st quadrant: all trig functions are positive 2nd: sine and csc are positive 3rd: tangent and cot are positive 4th: cosine and secant are positive
