Respuesta :

sin x cotx = sin x * cos x / sin x  = cos x

so cos x = 1/3

Answer:

A numerical value of one trigonometric function of x, for the given function would be [tex]cos(x)=\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that there are many trigonometric functions, that can be expressed as functions of x, for example:

[tex]sin(x)[/tex]

[tex]cos(x)[/tex]

[tex]tan(x)[/tex]

[tex]cot(x)[/tex]

[tex]csc(x)[/tex]

So, the problem is aking us for one trigonometric function of x, but gives us a product of functions of x, instead of one function of x. We note then, that

[tex]cot(x)=\frac{cos(x)}{sin(x)}[/tex]

Therefore, we calculate from the given function

[tex]sin(x)*\frac{cos(x)}{sin(x)}=cos(x)=\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

wich is our answer, furthermore, we could calculate the value of x for this case

[tex]x=cos^-1(\frac{1}{3})\approx70.5[/tex]
