The Solution to Question 25:

Given:

[tex]sec135^o[/tex]

We are required to evaluate the given expression.

[tex]sec135^o=\frac{1}{\cos135^o}[/tex]

Recall:

[tex]\cos135^o=-\cos(180-135)=-\cos45^o=-\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}[/tex]

Thus,

[tex]sec135^o=\frac{1}{cos135^o}=\frac{1}{-\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}}=-\frac{\sqrt{2}}{1}=-\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Therefore, the correct answer is:

[tex]-\sqrt{2}[/tex]
