Problem: Find the exact values of the six trigonometric functions of \(\theta.\)

A right triangle with an angle theta, leg opposite theta is 6, and the other leg is 8

\(\sin \theta = \dfrac{3}{5} \qquad \csc \theta = \dfrac{5}{3}\)

\(\cos \theta = \dfrac{4}{5}\qquad \sec \theta = \dfrac{5}{4}\)

\(\tan \theta = \dfrac{3}{4}\qquad \cot \theta = \dfrac{4}{3}\)
