Trigonometry question?
Suppose for some acute angle, sin θ=0.345. Use the unit circle definition of trigonometry (no inverse functions) to find:
sin(π+θ), sin(2π-θ), and sin(π-θ)
oh also explain what you did

sin(pi + theta) = -0.345;
sin(2pi - theta) = -0.345;
sin(pi - theta) = 0.345.

theta acute angle < 90 degrees -- 1st quadrant
pi + theta -- 3rd quad ... sin is neg in quad 3
sin(pi + theta) = -sin theta = -0.345
2 pi - theta is in quad 4
again sin is neg
sin(2pi - theta) = -sin theta = -0.345
pi - theta is in quad 2
sin(pi - theta) = sin theta = +0.345

sin(θ) = 0.345
hint: sin(π) = sin(2π) = 0
think about a car on a circular track. It drives exactly π around the track to sin(π) = 0. then it goes a little farther π+θ. Now the car is below the equator.
sin (π+θ) = -0.345
the car drives all the way around to where it started then it backs up. again below the equator
sin(2π-θ) = -0.345
like the first. car drives half way, but this time it backs up. Above the equator.
sin(π - θ) = 0.345
