Tan Undefined 283F28
1. **Problem statement:** Given that $\tan \theta$ is undefined and $8\pi \leq \theta \leq 9\pi$, find $\sin \theta$, $\cot \theta$, $\cos \theta$, and also find $\csc \theta$ and $\sec \theta$.
2. **Understanding the problem:** The tangent function is undefined where $\cos \theta = 0$ because $\tan \theta = \frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}$. So, we need to find $\theta$ in the interval $[8\pi, 9\pi]$ where $\cos \theta = 0$.
3. **Finding $\theta$ where $\cos \theta = 0$:** The cosine function is zero at $\theta = \frac{\pi}{2} + k\pi$ for any integer $k$.
4. **Find $k$ such that $8\pi \leq \frac{\pi}{2} + k\pi \leq 9\pi$:**
$$8\pi \leq \frac{\pi}{2} + k\pi \leq 9\pi$$
Subtract $\frac{\pi}{2}$:
$$8\pi - \frac{\pi}{2} \leq k\pi \leq 9\pi - \frac{\pi}{2}$$
$$\frac{16\pi}{2} - \frac{\pi}{2} \leq k\pi \leq \frac{18\pi}{2} - \frac{\pi}{2}$$
$$\frac{15\pi}{2} \leq k\pi \leq \frac{17\pi}{2}$$
Divide by $\pi$:
$$\frac{15}{2} \leq k \leq \frac{17}{2}$$
$$7.5 \leq k \leq 8.5$$
Since $k$ is an integer, $k = 8$.
5. **Calculate $\theta$:**
$$\theta = \frac{\pi}{2} + 8\pi = \frac{\pi}{2} + \frac{16\pi}{2} = \frac{17\pi}{2}$$
6. **Find $\sin \theta$:**
Since $\sin \theta = \sin \left( \frac{17\pi}{2} \right )$.
Recall that $\sin(\theta)$ has period $2\pi$, so:
$$\sin \left( \frac{17\pi}{2} \right ) = \sin \left( \frac{17\pi}{2} - 8\pi \right ) = \sin \left( \frac{17\pi}{2} - \frac{16\pi}{2} \right ) = \sin \left( \frac{\pi}{2} \right ) = 1$$
7. **Find $\cot \theta$:**
Since $\cot \theta = \frac{\cos \theta}{\sin \theta}$ and $\cos \theta = 0$ (because $\tan \theta$ undefined means $\cos \theta = 0$),
$$\cot \theta = \frac{0}{\sin \theta} = 0$$
8. **Find $\cos \theta$:**
As established, $\cos \theta = 0$.
9. **Find $\csc \theta$:**
$$\csc \theta = \frac{1}{\sin \theta} = \frac{1}{1} = 1$$
10. **Find $\sec \theta$:**
Since $\sec \theta = \frac{1}{\cos \theta}$ and $\cos \theta = 0$,
$$\sec \theta = \text{undefined}$$
**Final answers:**
- $\sin \theta = 1$
- $\cot \theta = 0$
- $\cos \theta = 0$
- $\csc \theta = 1$
- $\sec \theta$ is undefined
