Answer

$tan\theta =-\frac{1}{3}$, $cot\theta =-3$, $sec\theta =\frac{\sqrt {10}}{3}$, $csc\theta =-\sqrt {10}$.

Work Step by Step

1. As $sin\theta\lt0, cos\theta\gt0$, we can identify $\theta$ is in quadrant IV. 2. Let $x=3, y=-1, r=\sqrt {10}$, we have: $tan\theta=\frac{y}{x}=-\frac{1}{3}$, $cot\theta=\frac{x}{y}=-3$, $sec\theta=\frac{r}{x}=\frac{\sqrt {10}}{3}$, $csc\theta=\frac{r}{y}=-\sqrt {10}$.
