The quotient of a reciprocal would equal the numerator squared divided by the denominator squared. i.e. (x/y)/(y/x) = x2/y2
A reciprocal equation is usually y = k/x where k is a constant. This is an inverse relationship because y is equal to k divided by x.
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.
