-2sin((4pi)/3)

Solution

- 2 sin (\frac{4 π}{3})

Solution

3

Decimal Notation

1.73205 \dots

Solution steps

- 2 sin (\frac{4 π}{3})

Rewrite using trig identities:

sin (\frac{4 π}{3}) = - \frac{3}{2}

sin (\frac{4 π}{3})

Rewrite using trig identities:

sin (π) cos (\frac{π}{3}) + cos (π) sin (\frac{π}{3})

sin (\frac{4 π}{3})

Write

sin (\frac{4 π}{3})

sin (π + \frac{π}{3})

= sin (π + \frac{π}{3})

Use the Angle Sum identity:

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

= sin (π) cos (\frac{π}{3}) + cos (π) sin (\frac{π}{3})

= sin (π) cos (\frac{π}{3}) + cos (π) sin (\frac{π}{3})

Use the following trivial identity:

sin (π) = 0

= 0 \cdot \frac{1}{2} + (- 1) \frac{3}{2}

Simplify

= - \frac{3}{2}

= - 2 (- \frac{3}{2})

Simplify

- 2 (- \frac{3}{2}) : 3

- 2 (- \frac{3}{2})

Apply rule

- (- a) = a

= 2 \cdot \frac{3}{2}

Multiply fractions:

a \cdot \frac{b}{c} = \frac{a \cdot b}{c}

= \frac{3 \cdot 2}{2}

Cancel the common factor:
