-$\cos \theta = \frac { 2 } { 11 }$ and $\sec \theta = \frac { 11 } { 2 }$
A) Possible
B) Impossible

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The statement is possible because $\sec \theta$ is the reciprocal of $\cos \theta$, so if $\cos \theta = \frac{2}{11}$, then $\sec \theta = \frac{1}{\cos \theta} = \frac{11}{2}$.
