Solution

- 6 - 2

Decimal Notation

- 3.86370 \dots

Solution steps

csc (- \frac{π}{12})

Use the following property:

csc (- x) = - csc (x)

csc (- \frac{π}{12}) = - csc (\frac{π}{12})

= - csc (\frac{π}{12})

Rewrite using trig identities:

csc (\frac{π}{12}) = 6 + 2

csc (\frac{π}{12})

Rewrite using trig identities:

\frac{1}{sin ( \frac{π}{12} )}

csc (\frac{π}{12})

Use the basic trigonometric identity:

csc (x) = \frac{1}{sin ( x )}

= \frac{1}{sin ( \frac{π}{12} )}

= \frac{1}{sin ( \frac{π}{12} )}

Rewrite using trig identities:

sin (\frac{π}{12}) = \frac{6 - 2}{4}

sin (\frac{π}{12})

Rewrite using trig identities:

sin (\frac{π}{4}) cos (\frac{π}{6}) - cos (\frac{π}{4}) sin (\frac{π}{6})

sin (\frac{π}{12})

Write

sin (\frac{π}{12})

sin (\frac{π}{4} - \frac{π}{6})

= sin (\frac{π}{4} - \frac{π}{6})

Use the Angle Difference identity:

sin (s - t) = sin (s) cos (t) - cos (s) sin (t)

= sin (\frac{π}{4}) cos (\frac{π}{6}) - cos (\frac{π}{4}) sin (\frac{π}{6})

= sin (\frac{π}{4}) cos (\frac{π}{6}) - cos (\frac{π}{4}) sin (\frac{π}{6})

Use the following trivial identity:

sin (\frac{π}{4}) = \frac{2}{2}

sin (\frac{π}{4})
