$\csc (x) = \frac{5}{3}$ ,

$\tan (x) = \frac{3}{4}$

Step 1

To find the value of

$\sin (x)$ , use the fact that

$\frac{1}{\csc (x)}$ then substitute in the known values.

$\sin (x) = \frac{1}{\csc (x)} = \frac{1}{\frac{5}{3}}$

Step 2.1

Multiply the numerator by the reciprocal of the denominator.

$\sin (x) = \frac{1}{\csc (x)} = 1 (\frac{3}{5})$

Step 2.2

Multiply

$\frac{3}{5}$ by

$1$ .

$\sin (x) = \frac{1}{\csc (x)} = \frac{3}{5}$

Step 3

To find the value of

$\cos (x)$ , use the fact that

$\tan (x) = \frac{\sin (x)}{\cos (x)}$ so

$\cos (x) = \frac{\sin (x)}{\tan (x)}$ then substitute in the known values.

$\cos (x) = \frac{\sin (x)}{\tan (x)} = \frac{\frac{3}{5}}{\frac{3}{4}}$

Step 4.2.1

Cancel the common factor.

$\cos (x) = \frac{\sin (x)}{\tan (x)} = \frac{3}{5} \cdot \frac{4}{3}$

Step 4.2.2

Rewrite the expression.

$\cos (x) = \frac{\sin (x)}{\tan (x)} = \frac{1}{5} \cdot 4$

Step 4.3

Combine

$\frac{1}{5}$ and

$4$ .

$\cos (x) = \frac{\sin (x)}{\tan (x)} = \frac{4}{5}$

Step 5

To find the value of

$\cot (x)$ , use the fact that

$\frac{1}{\tan (x)}$ then substitute in the known values.

$\cot (x) = \frac{1}{\tan (x)} = \frac{1}{\frac{3}{4}}$
