Draw a triangle: QUADRANT 2 since tan(θ) is less than 0.

Sides: 1, 2√2, 3 (PYTH. THEOREM)

cos(θ)= (2√2)/3

If sin theta is 1/3, then theta is in either QI or Q2.  If tan theta is negative, then theta is in either Q2 or Q4.  Thus, theta is in Q2.

If sin theta = opp / hyp = 1/3, then opp=1 and hyp=3.  Thus, adj=sqrt(3^2-1^2), or sqrt 8, or 2sqrt 2.

Then cos theta = adj / hyp = 2sqrt(2) / 3.
