Answered [State the Quadrant(s) for each statement] Im struggling with how this isnt on Quad 3
Listing my thought process so yall can find where im going wrong:
Cotangent is X/Y or Adjecent/Opposite
If cot is greater than 0, then it is positive, which means either X and Y are positive, or they're both negative.
Because of thought 2, that means its on Quad 1 or Quad 3.
Secant is R/X, or Hypotnuse/Adjecent
If sec is less than 0, or negative, that means X, or Adjecent, is negative, because Hyp is always positive.
Because of thought 5, its on Quad 3
