How to correctly find CSC of an angle?

2.7k Views Asked by At

Alright, so one of my questions is CSC (angle) -5. When I plug CSC in my calculator, it says "math error." I'm using a Casio fx-300 MS, and using shift + cos, then putting an angle, such as 90.

While I am unfamiliar with your Casio FX-300 MS, remember that CSC(Θ) has reciprocal identities where:

Csc(θ)= 1/(Sin(θ))

So, if your question is Csc(θ)-5=Ans, try it as (1/Sin(θ) )-5=Ans and you should get the same answer you intended to get. I hope this helps.

edit: [Also, (again I do not know your calculator) Should it be shift + Sin by chance to work a Csc(θ)?]
