Q. The following are all angle measures (in radians, rounded to the nearest hundredth) whose sine is 0.43 .Which is the principal value of sin−1(0.43) ?Choose 1 answer:(A) −5.84(B) 0.44(C) 6.73(D) 13.01
Find principal value: To find the principal value of sin−1(0.43), we need to calculate the inverse sine (also known as arcsine) of 0.43. The principal value of the inverse sine function is the angle in the range [−π/2,π/2] or [−90°,90°] that has a sine of 0.43.
Calculate inverse sine: Using a calculator or a table, we find the inverse sine of 0.43. Make sure the calculator is set to radians if the answer choices are in radians.
Compare with options: After calculating, we find that sin−1(0.43)≈0.44 radians. This is the principal value because it lies within the range [−2π,2π].
Compare with options: After calculating, we find that sin−1(0.43)≈0.44 radians. This is the principal value because it lies within the range [−π/2,π/2]. Now we compare our calculated value with the given options. The closest match to our calculated value of 0.44 radians is option (B) 0.44.
