To find the trigonometric functions sec sin cos and tan, it is important to construct a triangle with the dimensions from the given above which is csc = 13/5. The triangle should have the hypotenuse as 13 while the height is 5. Then, use pythagorean theorem for the third side which will have a value of 12. The functions then are as follows:

cos = 12/13

sec = 13/12

tan = 5/12

cot = 12/5
