How do you get sec 30? Trigonometry Right Triangles Trigonometric Functions of Any Angle 1 Answer Alan P. Sep 8, 2015 #sec(30^@) = (2sqrt(3))/3# Explanation: #sec = 1/cos# #30^@# is one of the "standard" angles #cos(30^@) = ("adjacent")/("hypotenuse") = sqrt(3)/2# #rArr sec(30^@) = 2/sqrt(3) = (2sqrt(3))/3# Answer link Related questions How do you find the trigonometric functions of any angle?
