a.     


 

b.   \(\text{Range} \ \ f(\theta):\ y \in(-\infty,-1] \cup[1, \infty)\)

Show Worked Solution

a.    \(y=\operatorname{cosec}\left(\frac{\pi}{2}-\theta\right)=\dfrac{1}{\sin \left(\frac{\pi}{2}-\theta\right)}=\dfrac{1}{\cos\, \theta}\)
 


 

b.   \(\text{Range} \ \ f(\theta):\ y \in(-\infty,-1] \cup[1, \infty)\)
