Q. Find the following trigonometric values.\newlineExpress your answers exactly.\newlinecos(135)=sin(135)= \begin{array}{l} \cos \left(135^{\circ}\right)= \\ \sin \left(135^{\circ}\right)= \end{array}
  1. Using the Unit Circle: To find the exact values of cos(135)\cos(135^\circ) and sin(135)\sin(135^\circ), we can use the unit circle and the properties of trigonometric functions in different quadrants. The angle 135135^\circ is located in the second quadrant, where cosine is negative and sine is positive. We can also use the reference angle of 4545^\circ, which is the acute angle that 135135^\circ makes with the x-axis.
  2. Using the Reference Angle: The cosine and sine of 4545^\circ are known exact values. Since 135135^\circ is 4545^\circ more than 9090^\circ, we can use the fact that cos(135)=cos(45)\cos(135^\circ) = -\cos(45^\circ) and sin(135)=sin(45)\sin(135^\circ) = \sin(45^\circ) because cosine is negative in the second quadrant and sine is positive.
  3. Finding cos(135)\cos(135^\circ): The exact value of cos(45)\cos(45^\circ) is 2/2\sqrt{2}/2. Therefore, cos(135)=cos(45)=2/2\cos(135^\circ) = -\cos(45^\circ) = -\sqrt{2}/2.
  4. Finding sin(135°)\sin(135°): Similarly, the exact value of sin(45°)\sin(45°) is also 2/2\sqrt{2}/2. Therefore, sin(135°)=sin(45°)=2/2\sin(135°) = \sin(45°) = \sqrt{2}/2.
