To find the reflection of the point A that means coordinates of point C.
The graph which reflect point A is as follows:
The coordinates of the point C considering Y-axis as a mirror will be(−3,4) as in 2nd quadrant x-coordinate is negative but y-coordinate is positive.

Page 89 Problem 5 Answer
Given Point A has coordinates (3,4) and point C has coordinate(−3,4).
Firstly we have to draw a perpendicular from point C to x-axis.
Then we have to find the trigonometric ratios for ∠COB
Primary Trigonometric ratios aresinθ=Perpendicular
Hypotenuse=4/√52:cos θ=Base/Hypotenuse=−6/√52:tanθ=Perpendicular/Base=−4/6=−2/3
Therefore, the trigonometric ratios are 4/√52,−6/√52,−2/3
Page 89 Problem 6 Answer
We know that the x-axis has a total angle of 180°.
Now, COD clearly forms a right angle triangle that means ∠COD=45°
So,∠COD+∠COB=180⟹45°+∠COB=180
∠COB=180°−45°=135°
Therefore, measure of ∠COB is 135°.
Page 89 Problem 7 Answer
The angles∠COB and∠COD lie on the same axis( x-axis) and their sum is 180°.
The angles represent linear pair angles.
Precalculus Textbook Mcgraw Hill Answers
Therefore, the angles COB AND COD are Linear pair angles.

Given: The point P(−5,−12) lies on the terminal arm of an angle, θ, in standard position
To find: The exact trigonometric ratios for sinθ,cosθ,tanθ
Plot the given point on a graphJoin the point with the origin to get the terminal arm of the required angle
Get the reference angleEvaluate the trigonometric ratios using the sides of the right-angled triangle formed
The given situation can be modelled as,
Now, consider the right-angled triangle formed by the origin, the given point and the point (−5,0).
Using the definitions of the trigonometric ratios in a right-angled triangle, we have,
sinα=perpendicular/hypotenuse
=12/√122+52
=12/√144+25
=12/√169
=12/13
cosα=base/hypotenuse=5/√122+52
=5/√144+25
=5/√169
=5/13
tanα=perpendicular/base
=12/5
Mcgraw Hill Precalculus Textbook Answers
Now, from the figure, it is clear, θ=π+α
Then,
sinθ=sin(π+α)=−sinα=−12/13
cosθ=cos(π+α)=−cosα=−5/13
tanθ=tan(π+α)=tanα=12/5
So, sin θ=−12/13,cos θ=−5/13,tanθ=12/5
It has been found that sin θ=−12/13,cos θ=−5/13,tanθ=12/5

Given: θ is an angle in quadrant III and tanθ=1/5
To find: The exact values of sin θ, cos θ
Since θ is an angle in quadrant III, sin θ<0, cos θ<0
Use the trigonometric identities to find the exact value of sinθ,cosθ
Given: tanθ=1/5
We have, the trigonometric identity,
sec2 θ=1+tan2θ
Put tanθ=1/5 in the above identity to get,
sec2θ=1+(1/5)2 ⇒sec2
θ=1+1/25⇒sec2
θ=26/25⇒1/cos2θ
=26/25
⇒cos2θ=25/26
⇒cos θ=−5/√26 (Since cos θ<0)
Now, we have the identity,
Mcgraw Hill Precalculus Textbook Answers
sin2θ+cos2θ=1
Put cos2θ=25/26 in the above identity to get,
sin2θ+25/26=1
⇒sin2θ=1−25/26
⇒sin2θ=1/26
⇒sin θ=−1/√26 (Since sin θ<0)
So, sin θ=−1/√26 ,cos θ=−5/√26
It has been found that sin θ=−1/√26,cos θ=−5/√26

Page 94 Problem 11 Answer
Given,sin θ=−1/√2,0°<θ<360°
To find the value of θ which satisfies the equation.
We know that the value of sin is negative in 3rd and 4th quadrant.
Also,sin45°=1/√2
So, sin(180+45)°=−1/√2=sin225° and sin(360−45)°=−1/√2=sin315°
Therefore,θ=225°,315° considering 0°<θ<360°
Therefore the value of θ is 225°,315°.
