If p(x,y) is the point on the unit circle defined by real number theta, then cot theta= _____ A. 1/y B. 1/x C. x/y D. y/x

Respuesta :

C. x/y 
..................

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, lets get started.

Please refer the diagram I have attached.

As per SOH CAH TOA,

tan θ = [tex]\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex]

so, cot θ = [tex]\frac{adjacent}{opposite}[/tex]

cot θ = [tex]\frac{x}{y}[/tex]

hence the answer is C: [tex]\frac{x}{y}[/tex]  :   Answer

Hope it will help :)
