find the value of sec (θ) for an angle θ in standard position with a terminal ray that passes through the point (4, -3)

Answer:
d. 5/4
Step-by-step explanation:
The secant of an angle with a terminal ray through the point (4, -3) is the distance to the origin divided by the x-coordinate, or
[tex]\sqrt{4^{2}+(-3)^2}[/tex] / 4 = 5/4
Answer:
d. 5/4
Step-by-step explanation:
(4,-3) is in quadrant 4
cos/sec is positive in this quadrant
Hypotenuse = sqrt(3² + 4²)
sqrt(25)
5
cos(theta) = 4/5
sec(theta) = 5/4
