Normally you would use one of the infinite series to calculate the sine of an angle.
Fortunately, though, this has already been done and was published in mathematical tables. Nowadays, though, you would simply use a computer or calculator.
Even more fortunately, sin(30 deg) = 1/2 so you don't even need a calculator.
0.524 or pi/6
You can calculate that on any scientific calculator. Just make sure that the calculator is set to "degrees". As a check, the sine of 90° should come out as exactly 1.
The sine of 52.5 degrees equals 0.79335334029124. Hope I helped!
sine(15 degrees) = 0.25882 (rounded)
Sine of 225 degrees = - 0.5 sqrt(2)
sine of 30 degrees
the sine of a 30 degree angle is 0.5
Sin30 degrees is 0.50000
sin(30) = 0.5
Yes, the sine decreases, and so does the tangent.
Rearrange the sine ratio of sine = opposite/hypotenuse: hypotenuse = opposite/sine hypotenuse = 12/sine 30 degrees = 24 Therefore the hypotenuse is 24 units in length.
0.524 or pi/6
Use the sine ratio: sine 30 degrees = opposite/hypotenuse Then: opposite = 2*sine 30 degrees Answer: 1 foot
To find which angle has a sine of 0.13, you calculate arcsin or sin^-1(0.13) =7.47 degrees 7.47 degrees has a sine of 0.13. There is also another angle , below 360 , has a sine of 0.13. Subtract 7.47 from 180. 180-7.47 = 172.53 degrees also has a sine of 0.13.
The sine of 75 degrees is about 0.9659
It's not. The sine of 32 degrees is approximately 0.53. The sine of 59 degrees is approximately 0.86. For a definition of sine, see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigonometric_function .
sine-1(0.3420201433) = 20 degrees
