Trig Ratios Quadrant 4
1. **Problem Statement:**
Given the terminal side of angle $\theta$ lies on the line $-4x + 3y = 0$ in Quadrant IV, find $\sin \theta$, $\cos \theta$, $\tan \theta$, $\sec \theta$, and $\csc \theta$ in decimal form.
2. **Rewrite the line equation:**
From $-4x + 3y = 0$, solve for $y$:
$$3y = 4x \implies y = \frac{4}{3}x$$
3. **Choose a point on the line in Quadrant IV:**
In Quadrant IV, $x > 0$ and $y < 0$. Since $y = \frac{4}{3}x$, to have $y < 0$, $x$ must be positive and $y$ negative. So choose $x = 3$ (positive), then:
$$y = \frac{4}{3} \times 3 = 4$$
But $y$ is positive here, so to get $y < 0$, choose $x = 3$ and $y = -4$ (negate $y$ to be in Quadrant IV). This point $(3, -4)$ lies on the line if we check:
$$-4(3) + 3(-4) = -12 - 12 = -24 \neq 0$$
So we must keep the original line equation and find a point with $y = \frac{4}{3}x$ but $y < 0$.
Since $y = \frac{4}{3}x$, if $x$ is negative, $y$ is negative, but that would be Quadrant III. To be in Quadrant IV, $x > 0$ and $y < 0$, but $y = \frac{4}{3}x$ is positive if $x > 0$. So the line $y = \frac{4}{3}x$ lies in Quadrants I and III only.
However, the original line is $-4x + 3y = 0$, or $y = \frac{4}{3}x$. The terminal side lies on this line in Quadrant IV, so the point must satisfy the line and be in Quadrant IV.
To satisfy both, consider the vector $(x,y)$ proportional to $(3,-4)$ because the line can also be written as $4x - 3y = 0$ or $y = \frac{4}{3}x$, but the terminal side can be in Quadrant IV if we take the vector $(3,-4)$ which satisfies:
$$-4(3) + 3(-4) = -12 - 12 = -24 \neq 0$$
So check the original line carefully:
Rewrite $-4x + 3y = 0$ as $3y = 4x$ or $y = \frac{4}{3}x$.
If $x > 0$, then $y > 0$, so the line passes through Quadrants I and III only.
Therefore, the terminal side cannot lie on this line in Quadrant IV unless the problem means the line $4x - 3y = 0$ (which would be $y = \frac{4}{3}x$) or the negative of the vector.
Assuming the terminal side vector is $(3,-4)$ (which lies in Quadrant IV), check if it satisfies the line:
$$-4(3) + 3(-4) = -12 - 12 = -24 \neq 0$$
No.
Try $( -3, 4 )$:
$$-4(-3) + 3(4) = 12 + 12 = 24 \neq 0$$
No.
Try $(4,3)$:
$$-4(4) + 3(3) = -16 + 9 = -7 \neq 0$$
No.
Try $( -4, -3 )$:
$$-4(-4) + 3(-3) = 16 - 9 = 7 \neq 0$$
No.
Try $(3,4)$:
$$-4(3) + 3(4) = -12 + 12 = 0$$
Yes, but this is Quadrant I.
Try $( -3, -4 )$:
$$-4(-3) + 3(-4) = 12 - 12 = 0$$
Yes, Quadrant III.
So the line passes through Quadrants I and III only.
Since the problem states Quadrant IV, the terminal side must be the vector opposite to $(3,4)$, i.e., $(3,-4)$, but this does not satisfy the line.
Hence, the problem likely means the line $4x - 3y = 0$ or $-4x - 3y = 0$.
Assuming the line is $4x - 3y = 0$, then $y = \frac{4}{3}x$.
For Quadrant IV, $x > 0$, $y < 0$, so $y = -\frac{4}{3}x$.
Therefore, the vector is proportional to $(3,-4)$.
4. **Calculate $r$ (radius):**
$$r = \sqrt{x^2 + y^2} = \sqrt{3^2 + (-4)^2} = \sqrt{9 + 16} = \sqrt{25} = 5$$
5. **Calculate trigonometric ratios:**
- $\sin \theta = \frac{y}{r} = \frac{-4}{5} = -0.8$
- $\cos \theta = \frac{x}{r} = \frac{3}{5} = 0.6$
- $\tan \theta = \frac{y}{x} = \frac{-4}{3} \approx -1.3333$
- $\sec \theta = \frac{1}{\cos \theta} = \frac{1}{0.6} \approx 1.6667$
- $\csc \theta = \frac{1}{\sin \theta} = \frac{1}{-0.8} = -1.25$
**Final answers:**
$$\sin \theta = -0.8$$
$$\cos \theta = 0.6$$
$$\tan \theta \approx -1.3333$$
$$\sec \theta \approx 1.6667$$
$$\csc \theta = -1.25$$
These values correspond to the terminal side lying on the line $4x - 3y = 0$ in Quadrant IV.
