reciprocal trigonometric functions

Cosecant, secant, and cotangent — 1 divided by sine, cosine, and tangent.

The reciprocal trigonometric functions — cosecant, secant, and cotangent — aren't new ratios; each is 1 divided by one of sine, cosine, or tangent: \csc\theta=\frac{1}{\sin\theta}, \sec\theta=\frac{1}{\cos\theta}, \cot\theta=\frac{1}{\tan\theta}.
