Note the quadrant. Using the proper sign, show how you use a Pythagorean Identity to find cos theta(what is its sign in Q2). Then you can use a Quotient Identity to find tan theta. Ensure that it’s sign is correct in Q2. Rationalization the denominator and simplify as much as possible.

Find tan θ, given that sin θ and θ is in quadrant II.
Given that theta is in quadrant 2 and sine theta value is given to us. We need to compute cos theta using pythogorean identity and then find tan theta using Quotient Identity.
Here the pythogorean Identity is shown below we know the value of sinθ and we use it to find the value of cosθ
We got cos θ value as shown below but we need to confirm its sign.
Here it is said that θ is in quadrant 2, so the sin &theta...
