To visualize these problems, it helps to understand the unit circle! For angle A in the second quadrant, where \( \sin A = \frac{12}{13} \), \( \cos A \) will be negative. Using the Pythagorean identity, we find \( \cos A = -\frac{5}{13} \). So, the values requested are: (1) \( \tan A = \frac{\sin A}{\cos A} = -\frac{12}{5} \). (2) For \( \cos^2 A - \sin^2 A = \left(-\frac{5}{13}\right)^2 - \left(\frac{12}{13}\right)^2 = \frac{25}{169} - \frac{144}{169} = -\frac{119}{169} \). (3) \( 13\cos A + 5\tan A = 13 \left(-\frac{5}{13}\right) + 5 \left(-\frac{12}{5}\right) = -5 - 12 = -17 \). Now for angle B! Since \( \cos B = \frac{-8}{17} \) in the third quadrant, we find \( \sin B = -\frac{15}{17} \). The calculations yield: (1) \( \sin B = -\frac{15}{17} \). (2) For \( \frac{1}{\tan^2 B} - \frac{1}{\sin^2 B} \): using \( \tan B = \frac{\sin B}{\cos B} = \frac{-15/17}{-8/17} = \frac{15}{8} \) gives \( \tan^2 B = \frac{225}{64} \), then \( \frac{64}{225} - \frac{17^2}{15^2} = \frac{64}{225} - \frac{225}{225} = \frac{-161}{225} \). (3) \( 17\sin B - 8\tan B = 17 \left(-\frac{15}{17}\right) - 8\left(\frac{15}{8}\right) = -15 - 15 = -30 \). Wrapping up the trigonometric exploration, isn't it fascinating how these relationships unfold? Carve out some time for more math—you'll find endless patterns creating beautiful shapes and solutions!
