Answer

$\cos\theta=-\frac{3}{5}$ $\sec\theta=-\frac{5}{3}$ $\sin\theta=-\frac{4}{5}$ $\csc\theta=-\frac{5}{4}$ $\tan\theta=\frac{4}{3}$ $\cot\theta=\frac{3}{4}$

Work Step by Step

$\cos\theta=-\frac{3}{5}$ $\sec\theta=\frac{1}{\cos\theta}=-\frac{5}{3}$ $\sin^{2}\theta=1-\cos^{2}\theta=1-(-\frac{3}{5})^{2}=\frac{16}{25}$ $\sin\theta=\pm\sqrt {\frac{16}{25}}=-\frac{4}{5}$ ($\sin\theta$ is negative in the third quadrant.) $\csc\theta=\frac{1}{\sin\theta}=-\frac{5}{4}$ $\tan\theta=\frac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}=\frac{-\frac{4}{5}}{-\frac{3}{5}}=\frac{4}{3}$ $\cot\theta=\frac{1}{\tan\theta}=\frac{3}{4}$
