Hi I need help on question #2 of my homework :)

**Trigonometric Identities Exploration**

1. \(\text{CSC}(\theta) = -\frac{\sqrt{5}}{2}\)

2. \(\text{CSC}(\theta) = \frac{1}{\sin \theta}\)

   \[
   \sin \theta = \frac{2}{\sqrt{5}}
   \]

3. \(\cos^2 \theta = 1 - \sin^2 \theta = 1 - \left(\frac{2}{\sqrt{5}}\right)^2\)

   \[
   = 1 - \frac{4}{5} = \frac{5}{5} - \frac{4}{5} = \frac{1}{5}
   \]

**Diagram Explanation:**

- A circle is depicted with an angle in the fourth quadrant (labeled as "IV"). Indicators show that cosine (\(\cos\)) and secant (\(\sec\)) are positive in this quadrant.

4. \(\tan \theta = \frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta} = \frac{\frac{2}{\sqrt{5}}}{\frac{1}{\sqrt{5}}} = 2\)

   \[
   \tan \theta = -2 \quad (\text{as indicated in the diagram})
   \]

---

2. **Problem to Solve:**

   **Find the equivalent of \(\frac{\sec^2 \theta - 1}{\sec 2\theta}\). (Answer should contain \(\sin \theta\))**
