You are given sin t. We can use the identity sin2 t + cos2 t = 1 to find cos t.
cos t = √(1 - sin2 t)
cos t = √(1 - (3/5)(3/5))
cos t = √(1 - (9/25))
cos t = √((25 - 9) / 25))
cos t = √(16 / 25)
cos t = 4 / 5
Since cosine is negative in the quadrant 2, cos t will be -4/5.
Then you are going to use these identities to find the other values:
tan t = sin t / cos t
cot t = cos t / sin t
sec t = 1 / cos t
csc t = 1 / sin t
