sin(-1020)

Solution

sin (- 102 0^{\circ})

Solution

\frac{3}{2}

Decimal Notation

0.86602 \dots

Solution steps

sin (- 102 0^{\circ})

Use the following property:

sin (- x) = - sin (x)

sin (- 102 0^{\circ}) = - sin (102 0^{\circ})

= - sin (102 0^{\circ})

sin (102 0^{\circ}) = sin (30 0^{\circ})

sin (102 0^{\circ})

Rewrite

102 0^{\circ}

36 0^{\circ} \cdot 2 + 30 0^{\circ}

= sin (36 0^{\circ} 2 + 30 0^{\circ})

Apply the periodicity of

sin

sin (x + 36 0^{\circ} \cdot k) = sin (x)

sin (36 0^{\circ} \cdot 2 + 30 0^{\circ}) = sin (30 0^{\circ})

= sin (30 0^{\circ})

= - sin (30 0^{\circ})

Rewrite using trig identities:

sin (30 0^{\circ}) = - \frac{3}{2}

sin (30 0^{\circ})

Rewrite using trig identities:

sin (18 0^{\circ}) cos (12 0^{\circ}) + cos (18 0^{\circ}) sin (12 0^{\circ})

sin (30 0^{\circ})

Write

sin (30 0^{\circ})

sin (18 0^{\circ} + 12 0^{\circ})

= sin (18 0^{\circ} + 12 0^{\circ})

Use the Angle Sum identity:

sin (s + t) = sin (s) cos (t) + cos (s) sin (t)

= sin (18 0^{\circ}) cos (12 0^{\circ}) + cos (18 0^{\circ}) sin (12 0^{\circ})

= sin (18 0^{\circ}) cos (12 0^{\circ}) + cos (18 0^{\circ}) sin (12 0^{\circ})

Use the following trivial identity:

sin (18 0^{\circ}) = 0
