To find the other trigonometric functions based on the given information, we start with the values of \( \cos t \) and \( \sin t \). 1. We know that \( \cos t = \frac{2}{7} \). 2. Since \( \sin t < 0 \), we can use the Pythagorean identity: \[ \sin^2 t + \cos^2 t = 1. \] Plugging in \( \cos t \): \[ \sin^2 t + \left(\frac{2}{7}\right)^2 = 1 \\ \sin^2 t + \frac{4}{49} = 1 \\ \sin^2 t = 1 - \frac{4}{49} \\ \sin^2 t = \frac{49}{49} - \frac{4}{49} \\ \sin^2 t = \frac{45}{49}. \] Therefore, \( \sin t = -\sqrt{\frac{45}{49}} = -\frac{\sqrt{45}}{7} = -\frac{3\sqrt{5}}{7} \) (since \( \sqrt{45} = 3\sqrt{5} \) and we take the negative because \( \sin t < 0 \)). 3. Now we can find \( \tan t \): \[ \tan t = \frac{\sin t}{\cos t} = \frac{-\frac{3\sqrt{5}}{7}}{\frac{2}{7}} = -\frac{3\sqrt{5}}{2}. \] 4. Next, we find the cosecant: \[ \csc t = \frac{1}{\sin t} = \frac{1}{-\frac{3\sqrt{5}}{7}} = -\frac{7}{3\sqrt{5}}. \] To rationalize this, multiply the numerator and denominator by \( \sqrt{5} \): \[ \csc t = -\frac{7\sqrt{5}}{15}. \] 5. Then, we find the secant: \[ \sec t = \frac{1}{\cos t} = \frac{1}{\frac{2}{7}} = \frac{7}{2}. \] Now we can summarize: \[ \sin t = -\frac{3\sqrt{5}}{7} \\ \tan t = -\frac{3\sqrt{5}}{2} \\ \csc t = -\frac{7\sqrt{5}}{15} \\ \sec t = \frac{7}{2}. \]
