If triangle RST is within Quadrant 4 and cos R= √3/2, what is the value of cotR

CotR = -√3

Step-by-step explanation:

In the 4th quadrant, sin is negative;

Since Cos R = √3/2,

Adjacent = √3

Hypotenuse = 2

Get the opposite;

opp^2 = 2^2 -(√3)^2

opp^2 = 4 - 3

opp^2 = 1

Opp = 1

Get sinR

Sin R = opp/hyp

SinR=  -1/2

CotR = cosR/sinR

CostR = (√3/2)/(-1/2)

CotR = √3/2* -2/1

CotR = -√3
