OK.  I used my calculator to evaluate sec(85 degrees).

My calculator doesn't have a "sec" button on it. 
But I remembered that

           sec of an angle = 1 / (cosine of the same angle) .

So I used my calculator to find cos(85), and then I hit the
" 1/x " key, and got 11.474, which I knew to be sec(85).
