Answer:

True

Explanation:

Angles in the Cartesian plane move from x-axis to an anticlockwise direction to give positive angles

When angles are formed through clockwise movement they fall on the Fourth quadrant ....in the fourth quadrant only Cosine is positive meaning Sin and Tan are negative hence

tan(-20°) = -tan 20°

In a summary

cos(-a)= cosa

tan(-a) = -tana

sin(-a) =-sina
