Answer

$$\cos \theta = \frac{5}{{13}},\,\tan \theta = \frac{{12}}{5},\,\,\cot \theta = \frac{5}{{12}},\,\,\sec \theta = \frac{{13}}{5},\,\,\csc \theta = \frac{{13}}{{12}}$$

Work Step by Step

$$\eqalign{ & {\text{We have that }}\theta = {\sin ^{ - 1}}\frac{{12}}{{13}} \cr & \cr & \sin \theta = \frac{{12}}{{13}} = \frac{{{\text{opposite side}}}}{{{\text{hypotenuse}}}} \cr & {\text{Adjacent side}} = \sqrt {{{13}^2} - {{12}^2}} \cr & {\text{Adjacent side}} = 5 \cr & \cr & {\text{Then,}} \cr & \cos \theta = \frac{5}{{13}} \cr & \tan \theta = \frac{{12}}{5} \cr & \cot \theta = \frac{5}{{12}} \cr & \sec \theta = \frac{{13}}{5} \cr & \csc \theta = \frac{{13}}{{12}} \cr} $$
