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)


Does a secant line pass through the center of a circle?

No, a secant line does not pass through the center of a circle. A secant line is a line that intersects a circle in two distinct points. Only a line passing through the center of a circle is called a diameter.


How do you find sec on TI-83 Plus?

There isn't a sec key on the TI-83 Plus. Secant is 1/cosine, which is what is used to find secant on a TI-83 Plus. For example, to find the secant of 4, enter 1/sec(4).


What are the values of theta of which secant theta is undefined?

Since secant theta is the same as 1 / cosine theta, the answer is any values for which cosine theta is zero, for example, pi/2.


Three chords that are not diameters?

Ummm I am sort of confused what you mean, but I believe you mean other then the Diameter and Radius. There is the Chord, the Secant, and the Tangent Lines.

Where is the tangent secant angle on a circle?

The tangent secant angle is the angle between the tangent to a circle and the secant, when the latter is extended.
