Simplify sin(5)

Problem

sin(5)

Solution

1. Identify the expression as the sine of a constant value.

2. Determine the units of the argument. Since no degree symbol is present, the value 5 is assumed to be in radians.

3. Evaluate the expression. The value 5 is not a standard angle (like π/6 or π/4, so the expression sin(5) is already in its simplest exact form.

4. Approximate the value if a decimal is required. Using a calculator in radian mode, sin(5)≈−0.9589

Final Answer

sin(5)=sin(5)
