Math Problem Statement
Find all values of θ, if θ is in the interval [0°, 360°] and has the given function value. csc θ = (2√3)/3
Solution
To solve for in the given interval based on the equation:
We first recognize that , so:
Now, solve for :
Simplifying :
Now, we need to find all values of such that in the interval .
