Answer

240,300

Steps

Step 1 :Since the cosecant is the reciprocal of the sine function, we need to find two angles with a sine of 32. We know that sine is negative in the third and fourth quadrants.

Step 2 :First, let's find the reference angle, which is the angle with a sine of 32. The reference angle is approximately 60.

Step 3 :Now, we need to find the angles in the third and fourth quadrants with this reference angle. The angles are 240 and 300.

Step 4 :240,300
