Very easy.. just remember that in first quad

all 6 trigo fn is +ve

in second quad

sin and cosec +ve rest - ve

in third quadrant

tan and cot +ve rest negative

and in 4th quad

cos and sec is +ve rest negative..

hope this will help you

marshmallow9250: i think you are not getting the quadrant right...
tokaians: it will be + tanx or + cot x
marshmallow9250: well remember this
marshmallow9250: tanx
tokaians: so whenever there is π/2 so it will change else not
marshmallow9250: sorry... i didn't get you.. please clear what you want to say
tokaians: but in the book its given -cot x
tokaians: ???
marshmallow9250: it should be cotx
marshmallow9250: actually you can represent tan as cot just by subtracting angle in pi/2. and in third quad tan and cot is always positive
