Q. Rotate the yellow dot to a location of 1 radian. After you rotate the angle, determine the value of sin1, to the nearest hundredth.
Understand the problem: Understand the problem.We need to find the value of the sine function for an angle of 1 radian. The sine function gives the y-coordinate of a point on the unit circle corresponding to a given angle measured in radians from the positive x-axis.
Calculate the value: Calculate the value of sin1.Using a calculator or a trigonometric table, we find that:sin1≈0.8414709848…
Round the value: Round the value to the nearest hundredth.To round to the nearest hundredth, we look at the third decimal place. If it is 5 or more, we round up. If it is less than 5, we round down. In this case, the third decimal place is a 4, so we round down.sin1≈0.84
