Answer

(a) $30^\circ$ (b) $-45^\circ$ (c) $135^\circ$ (d) $-60^\circ$

Work Step by Step

(a) Since $cos(30^\circ)=\frac{\sqrt 3}{2}$, we have $\theta=arccos(\frac{\sqrt 3}{2})=30^\circ$ (b) Since $tan(-45^\circ)=-1$, we have $\theta=tan^{-1}(-1)=-45^\circ$ (c) Since $cot(135^\circ)=-1$, we have $\theta=cot^{-1}(-1)=135^\circ$ (d) Since $csc(-60^\circ)=-\frac{2\sqrt 3}{3}$, we have $\theta=csc^{-1}(-\frac{2\sqrt 3}{3})=-60^\circ$
