If $$csc(x)=4$$, for $$90º<x<180º$$
$$sin\left(\frac{x}{2}\right)=$$
$$cos\left(\frac{x}{2}\right)=$$
$$tan\left(\frac{x}{2}\right)=$$
I'm definitely stumped on this one. I know that this is the half-angle formulas. Luckily we all have sheets we can use for the exam. I know that:
$$csc(x)=4$$ is the same as $$sin(x)=1/4$$, am I correct?
From there, I don't know if I should do a sine inverse, or plug and chug for the half-angle formulas.
$$sin\left(\frac{x}{2}\right)=±√(\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)(1-Cos(2x)))$$
And I don't know if I have to plug for x on both sides, or if I have to find what cosine(2x) is, or If I have to plug in the double angle formula at the end there.
