sec((17pi)/6)

sec (\frac{17 π}{6})

- \frac{2 3}{3}

Decimal Notation

- 1.15470 \dots

Solution steps

sec (\frac{17 π}{6})

sec (\frac{17 π}{6}) = sec (\frac{5 π}{6})

sec (\frac{17 π}{6})

Rewrite

\frac{17 π}{6}

2 π + \frac{5 π}{6}

= sec (2 π + \frac{5 π}{6})

Apply the periodicity of

sec

sec (x + 2 π) = sec (x)

sec (2 π + \frac{5 π}{6}) = sec (\frac{5 π}{6})

= sec (\frac{5 π}{6})

= sec (\frac{5 π}{6})

Use the following trivial identity:

sec (\frac{5 π}{6}) = - \frac{2 3}{3}

sec (\frac{5 π}{6})

sec (x)
