Simplify csc(arccos(( square root of 3)/2))
Problem
Solution
Evaluate the inner inverse trigonometric function
arccos(√(,3)/2) Identify the angle
θ in the interval[0,π] such thatcos(θ)=√(,3)/2 Determine that
θ=π/6 (or30 becausecos(π/6)=√(,3)/2 Substitute this value back into the original expression to get
csc(π/6) Apply the reciprocal identity
csc(θ)=1/sin(θ) Calculate the final value using
sin(π/6)=1/2 which meanscsc(π/6)=1/(1/2)=2
