Verified Answer :

we know that

The Cosecant  is a trigonometric function that is the reciprocal of the sine

so

\(csc(x)=\frac{1}{sin(x)}\)

In this problem

Find the csc(B)

\(sin(B)=\frac{AC}{BC}\)

substitute the values

\(sin(B)=\frac{5}{6}\)

so

\(csc(B)=\frac{6}{5}\)

Find the csc(C)

\(sin(C)=\frac{AB}{BC}\)  

substitute the values

\(sin(C)=\frac{4}{6}\)

Simplify

\(sin(C)=\frac{2}{3}\)

so

\(csc(C)=\frac{3}{2}\)

Statements

case A) csc right triangle B right triangle equals fraction \(3\) over \(2\)

The statement is false

Because, the value of csc(B) equals fraction \(6\) over \(5\)

case B) csc right triangle C right triangle equals fraction \(3\) over \(2\)

The statement is true

See the procedure

case C) csc right triangle B right triangle equals fraction \(6\) over \(5\)

The statement is true

See the procedure

case D) csc right triangle C right triangle equals fraction \(5\) over \(6\)

The statement is false

Because, Because, the value of csc(C) equals fraction \(3\) over \(2\)
