Given sin theta= 2/3 and cos theta= sqrt 5/3, how do I find cot theta?

Given sin theta= 2/3 and cos theta= sqrt 5/3, how do I find csc theta?

I'm going to use @ for "theta"...much easier to type.

The basic definitions for the trig functions tell us that

tan @ = sin @ / cos @, AND

cot @ = cos @ / sin @

You are given sin @ and cos @.....

cot @ = cos @ / sin @

Substitute the values given, and do the arithmetic.

For the second part, csc @ = 1 / sin @

You are given sin @....
