Q. Rotate the yellow dot to a location of π radians. After you rotate the angle, determine the value of sinπ, to the nearest hundredth.
Understand angle π radians: To solve this problem, we need to understand what the sine function value is for an angle of π radians. The angle π radians corresponds to 180 degrees on the unit circle, which is a point on the negative x-axis.
Calculate sine value: The sine of an angle in the unit circle is the y-coordinate of the point where the terminal side of the angle intersects the unit circle. For an angle of π radians, the point on the unit circle is (−1,0).
Determine y-coordinate: Since the y-coordinate of the point is 0, the value of sinπ is 0.
Final result: We do not need to round 0 to the nearest hundredth, as it is already an integer.
