Answer:

Since, the six main trigonometric functions are:

  • Sine (sin)
  • Cosine (cos)
  • Tangent (tan)
  • Secant (sec)
  • Cosecant (csc)
  • Cotangent (cot)

If we have the exact value of any one trigonometric function for a degree then we can find the other function for the same degree as follow.

sin 300° = sin (-60 + 360)° = sin (-60) = - sin 60 = [tex]-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}[/tex]

cos 300° = cos (-60 + 360)° = cos (-60) = cos 60 = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

tan 300° = [tex]\frac{\sin 300^{\circ}}{\cos 300^{\circ}}=\frac{-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}{\frac{1}{2}}=-\sqrt{3}[/tex]

cot  300° = [tex]\frac{1}{\tan 300^{\circ}}=\frac{1}{-\sqrt{3}}=-\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}=-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}[/tex]

sec 300° = [tex]\frac{1}{\cos 300^{\circ}}=\frac{1}{\frac{1}{2}}=2[/tex]

csc 300° = [tex]\frac{1}{\sin 300^{\circ}}=\frac{1}{-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}=-\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}=-\frac{2\sqrt{3}}{3}[/tex]

Note : sin (-x) = -sin x and cos (-x) = cos x
