Drawing the reference triangles for trig and inverse trig functions?
I understand which quadrants house each positive function, but am unsure how you determine the quadrant that these functions go in.
ex-
1.) #sin^-1(1)#
2.) #tan^-1(-1)#
3.)#sec^-1(1/2)#
4.) #csc^-1(-sqrt(2))#

#(1)# Know that#cos# ,#sec# functions are restricted to quad#1# and#2# #(2)# Know that#tan# ,#cot# ,#sin# ,#csc# are restricted to quad#1# and#4# #(3)# And when you go to quadrant#4# with#tan# ,#cot# ,#sin# ,#csc# , use negative angles
