Why is cosine negative in the third quadrant?
On a Unit Circle, the cosine is the x coordinate of the point on the circle represented by an angle. Angles greater than 90° (pi/2 radians) and less than 270° (3*pi/2 radians) are to the left of the y-axis, so x is negative. Quadrant I is the upper right quadrant (x positive, y positive) 0° < ɵ < 90° Quadrant II is the upper left quadrant (x negative, y positive) 90° < ɵ < 180° Quadrant III is the lower left quadrant (x negative, y negative) 180° < ɵ < 270° Quadrant IV is the lower right quadrant (x positive, y negative) 270° < ɵ < 360°

What quadrant does -14-13i lie?
It will be in 3rd Quadrant because cosine and sine both are negative in 3rd Quadrant
Which angle has a negative sine and a positive cosine?
All the angles in 4th quadrant have positive cosine and negative sine e.g. 280,290,300,310...etc.
What is the relationship between the tan and cot?
Cotangent is 1 / tangent. Since tangent is sine / cosine, cotangent is cosine / sine.
Why is cotangent positive in the third quad?
If you are familiar with trigonometric functions defined in terms of the unit circle, the x and y coordinates are negative in the third quadrant. As a result, x/y, the ratio that defines cotangent, is positive.

Why is the tangent positive on quadrant III?
The tangent function is equal to the sine divided by the cosine. In quadrant III, both sin and cos are negative - and a negative divided by another negative is positive. Thus it follows that the tangent is positive in QIII.
What are the trigonometric functions?
sine, cosine, tangent, cosecant, secant and cotangent.
What are circular functions?
Sine, Cosine, Tangent, Cotangent, secant and cosecant
If the terminal side of an angle beta is in quadrant III what is the sign of each of the trigonometric function value of beta?
Tangent and cotangent positive; other 4 negative.
What are the six trigonometry function?
sine, cosine, tangent, cosecant, secant, cotangent.
Which trigonometric function is positive in the third quadrant?
The tangent and cotangent functions.
1 minus 2 cosine squared divided by sine cosine is equal to tangent minus cotangent?
No, it is not. To be correct, the expression requires parenthesis, which are missing.
