Recall the six trigonometric functions: sine (sin), cosine (cos), tangent (tan), cosecant (csc), secant (sec), and cotangent (cot). We are given sin \( \theta = \frac{\sqrt{5}}{7} \) and that \( \theta \) is in quadrant I, where all trigonometric functions are positive.
Use the Pythagorean identity to find cos \( \theta \): \( \sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta = 1 \). Substitute \( \sin \theta = \frac{\sqrt{5}}{7} \) to get \( \left( \frac{\sqrt{5}}{7} \right)^2 + \cos^2 \theta = 1 \).
Simplify the equation: \( \frac{5}{49} + \cos^2 \theta = 1 \). Then solve for \( \cos^2 \theta \) by subtracting \( \frac{5}{49} \) from both sides: \( \cos^2 \theta = 1 - \frac{5}{49} \).
Calculate \( \cos \theta \) by taking the positive square root (since \( \theta \) is in quadrant I): \( \cos \theta = \sqrt{1 - \frac{5}{49}} \).
Find the remaining trigonometric functions using the definitions: \( \tan \theta = \frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta} \), \( \csc \theta = \frac{1}{\sin \theta} \), \( \sec \theta = \frac{1}{\cos \theta} \), and \( \cot \theta = \frac{1}{\tan \theta} \). Rationalize denominators where necessary.

Definition of the Six Trigonometric Functions

The six trigonometric functions—sine, cosine, tangent, cosecant, secant, and cotangent—are ratios derived from a right triangle or the unit circle. Given sin θ, the other functions can be found using their relationships, such as tan θ = sin θ / cos θ and reciprocal identities like csc θ = 1 / sin θ.

Using the Pythagorean Identity to Find Cosine

The Pythagorean identity states that sin²θ + cos²θ = 1. Knowing sin θ allows calculation of cos θ by rearranging to cos θ = ±√(1 - sin²θ). The sign depends on the quadrant of θ, which is quadrant I here, so cosine is positive.

Quadrant Sign Rules for Trigonometric Functions

The sign of trigonometric functions depends on the quadrant of the angle. In quadrant I, all six functions are positive. This information is crucial for correctly determining the signs of cosine, tangent, and their reciprocals when calculating their values.
