Answer:

$sin \theta=\frac5{13}$

$cos\theta=-(12)/(13)$

$tan\theta =-(5)/(12)$

$cec \theta=2(3)/(5)$

$sec\theta=-1\frac1{12}$

$cot \theta=-2(2)/(5)$

Explanation:

Given point is (-24,10)

The distance between given point and the origin is

r=√(x^2+y^2)

Here r
=√((-24)^2+(10)^2)

=26 units.

x= -24 and y= 10

Now 6 trigonometric functions are

$sin \theta=\frac yr=(10)/(26)=\frac5{13}$

$cos\theta=(x)/(r)=(-24)/(26)=-(12)/(13)$

$tan\theta =(y)/(x)=(10)/(-24)=-(5)/(12)$

$cec \theta= (r)/(y)=(26)/(10)=(13)/(5)=2(3)/(5)$

$sec\theta=\frac rx=(26)/(-24)=-(13)/(12)=-1\frac1{12}$

$cot \theta=(x)/(y)=(-24)/(10)=-(12)/(5)=-2(2)/(5)$
