How would u find inverse cot csc and sec using a TI83+ because it does not have a button for the functions, for sin cos tan u just do inverse function, what do you do for the cot sec csc (i have already tried 1/inverse sin cos or tant, it doesnt work)

You're doing the inversion in the wrong order. The correct formulas are:

arccot x = arctan (1/x)
arcsec x = arccos (1/x)
arccsc x = arcsin (1/x)

This comes from the fact that, e.g. cot x=1/tan x. So let y=cot x, then 1/y=tan x, taking arctan of both sides yields arctan (1/y)=x±πk (the πk is due to the fact that many angles have the same tangent, and the arctan function only returns one of them). The other formulas have similar derivations.

1) cos[sin^-1 (-4/5)] solve it in terms of cosine. sin^-1 (-4/5)=x Now we have cos x instead of what we originally had. Solve cos x in terms of sin. Remember that sin²x+cos²x=1. Therefore cosx=√(1-sin²x) So now have cosx=√(1-sin²x) but remember that we said x=sin^-1 (-4/5) so therefore cosx=cos[sin^-1 (-4/5)]=√(1-sin²x) =√(1-sin²([sin^-1 (-4/5)])) =√(1-(-4/5)²)=√(1-(16/25)) =√(9/25)=3/5 The rest can be done the same way.
