The Reciprocal Trig Ratios
*In addition to the three trig ratios covered so far (sine, cosine, and tangent), three other trigÌýratios are reciprocals of each of these ratios.
*They are:
Cosecant = hypotenuse opposite :
(This ratio (abbreviated csc) is the reciprocal of the sine function.)
Ìý
Cotangent = adjacent opposite :
(This ratio (abbreviated cot) is the reciprocal of the tangent function.)
Ìý
Secant = hypotenuse adjacent :
(This ratio (abbreviated sec) is the reciprocal of the cosine function.)
