Help finding exact values.
Find an exact value. sin 75°
\[\frac{ \sqrt{6}+\sqrt{2} }{ 4 }\] Is this right?
How did you do it?
It is right, but what kind of help are you looking for?
I do not know how to do it, but looking at a unit circle that seemed correct with where the angle should be. I want to know what equatin to use to get that answer for future use.
Do you know the formula: sin(a+b)=sin(a)cos(b)+cos(a)sin(b)?
Like currently I am stuck on Find an exact value. sine of negative eleven pi divided by twelve.\[\sin(-\frac{ 11\pi }{ 12 })\]
I am not familiar with that equation.
OK, that makes it a lot more difficult, I guess. sin(-11pi/12)=-sin(11pi/12)=-sin(pi/12)=-sin(15°) Have you been instructed to do these kind of problems in a unit circle?
yes to find the final answer.
OK, I'll try to draw one...
I have a pic in front of me that I drew
I think you try to use "nice numbers" that add or subtract to get 75º 45º + 30º = 75º
now use sin(a+b)= sin(a)cos(b) + cos(a) sin(b)
I already figured that one out. I am working on\[\sin(-\frac{ 11\pi }{ 12 })\]
I (for one) switch to degrees first.
how do I do that?
multiply by 180/pi you get -165 degrees that means go clockwise from the x-axis. as a positive angle it is 360-165= 195 degrees so you want to find the sin(15) in the 3rd quadrant
