PLEASE I NEED THIS

determine the value of θ to the nearest degree

csc θ = 1.2711

the answer in my textbook is 52 degrees, but i've no idea how they got that.

p.s i need this asap - will give brainliest!!! thank u!!

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\csc\theta=1.2711\\\\\frac{1}{\csc\theta}=\frac{1}{1.2711}\\ \\\sin\theta=\frac{1}{1.2711}\\ \\\theta=\sin^{-1}(\frac{1}{1.2711})\\\\\theta\approx51.88^\circ\approx52^\circ[/tex]

Remember the identity [tex]\csc\theta=\frac{1}{\sin\theta}[/tex], so [tex]\sin\theta=\frac{1}{\csc\theta}[/tex] and it makes the problem easier. Just remember to take the inverse sine (let me know if you are not sure what that means).
