Use the table to find the value of the following.
Sin117°


Answer :

Answer:

[tex]\sin 117^{\circ} \approx 0.8910[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Sine reaches upper bound when [tex]\theta = 90^{\circ}[/tex] and then decreases until reaches lower bound when [tex]\theta = 180^{\circ}[/tex]. By symmetry, we find the following fact:

[tex]\sin 117^{\circ} = \sin (90^{\circ}+27^{\circ}) = \sin (90^{\circ}-27^{\circ})[/tex]

[tex]\sin 117^{\circ} = \sin 63^{\circ}[/tex]

By information form table we find that:

[tex]\sin 63^{\circ} \approx 0.8910[/tex]

Therefore, we conclude that value of the given angle is:

[tex]\sin 117^{\circ} \approx 0.8910[/tex]
