If sin=0.4, what is #sin(-theta) + csc theta#? Trigonometry Right Triangles Relating Trigonometric Functions 1 Answer Oscar L. May 26, 2016 #\sin(-\theta)+\csc(\theta)=-0.4+2.5=2.1# Explanation: We have #\sin(-\theta)=-sin(\theta)# because sine is an odd function #\csc(\theta)=1/\sin(\theta)# from the definition of the cosecant function Answer link Related questions What does it mean to find the sign of a trigonometric function and how do you find it?
