To evaluate the expression, we first need to recall the values of the trigonometric functions at the specified angles. 1. \(\csc 90^{\circ} = 1\) (since \(\sin 90^{\circ} = 1\)) 2. \(\tan 180^{\circ} = 0\) (since \(\sin 180^{\circ} = 0\) and \(\cos 180^{\circ} = -1\)) 3. \(\sec 180^{\circ} = -1\) (since \(\cos 180^{\circ} = -1\)) Now, we can substitute these values into the expression: \[ 3\left(\csc 90^{\circ}\right)^{2} + 5\left(\tan 180^{\circ}\right)^{2} + \sec 180^{\circ} \] \[ = 3(1)^{2} + 5(0)^{2} + (-1) \] \[ = 3(1) + 5(0) - 1 \] \[ = 3 + 0 - 1 \] \[ = 3 - 1 \] \[ = 2 \] Thus, the final answer is: \[ \boxed{2} \]
