|1) How is secant related to either sine or cosine?&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|2) What quadrant is each angle in? What is the reference angle for each?&lt;br /&gt;
|Answer:&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|1) &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; sec(x) = \frac{1}{cos(x)}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|2) a) Quadrant 2, b) Quadrant 4, c) Quadrant 3. The reference angles are: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \frac{\pi}{4}, \frac{\pi}{6}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and 60 degrees or &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\frac{\pi}{3}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Solution:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;mw-collapsible mw-collapsed&amp;quot; style = &amp;quot;text-align:left;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
! Final Answer A:&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Since &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \sec(x) = \frac{1}{\cos(x)} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and the angle is in quadrant 2, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \sec(\frac{3\pi}{4}) = \frac{1}{\cos(\frac{3\pi}{4})} = \frac{1}{\frac{-1}{\sqrt{2}}} = -\sqrt{2}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;mw-collapsible mw-collapsed&amp;quot; style = &amp;quot;text-align:left;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
! Final Answer B:&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|The reference angle is &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \frac{\pi}{6} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and is in the fourth quadrant. So tangent will be negative. Since the angle is 30 degees, using the 30-60-90 right triangle, we can conclude that &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\tan(\frac{11\pi}{6}) = -\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;mw-collapsible mw-collapsed&amp;quot; style = &amp;quot;text-align:left;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
! Final Answer C:&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Sin(-120) = - sin(120). So you can either compute sin(120) or sin(-120) = sin(240). Since the reference angle is 60 degrees, or &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\frac{\pi}{3}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, So &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; sin(-120) = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
