if tan theta=-3/8, which expression is equivalent to cot theta? 1/-3/8 , -3/8+1, square root of 1+(-8/3)^2, (-3/8)^2+1

  cot(theta) = 1/(-3/8)

Step-by-step explanation:

cot(theta) = 1/tan(theta) = 1/(-3/8)

Comment on the answer

The parentheses are required. With them, the value is cot(theta) = -8/3. Without them, the value is cot(theta) = -1/24, which is not correct.

Even if the answer is typeset, it must be done in such a way as to make it clear what the numerator and denominator are:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

x = -2
