In Exercises 39–48, use a calculator to find the value of the trigonometric function to four decimal places.
csc 17°

검증된 단계별 안내
1
Recall that the cosecant function is the reciprocal of the sine function. This means that \(\csc \theta = \frac{1}{\sin \theta}\).
Identify the angle given in the problem, which is \(17^\circ\).
Use a calculator to find the sine of \(17^\circ\). Make sure your calculator is set to degree mode before calculating \(\sin 17^\circ\).
Calculate the reciprocal of the sine value obtained: \(\csc 17^\circ = \frac{1}{\sin 17^\circ}\).
Round the result to four decimal places as requested.

Reciprocal Trigonometric Functions

The cosecant (csc) function is the reciprocal of the sine function, defined as csc θ = 1/sin θ. Understanding this relationship allows you to find csc values by first calculating sine values and then taking their reciprocals.
