Sin 0 Degrees
The value of sin 0 degrees is 0. Sin 0 degrees in radians is written as sin (0° × π/180°), i.e., sin (0π) or sin (0). In this article, we will discuss the methods to find the value of sin 0 degrees with examples.
- Sin 0°: 0
- Sin (-0 degrees): 0
- Sin 0° in radians: sin (0π) or sin (0 . . .)
What is the Value of Sin 0 Degrees?
The value of sin 0 degrees is 0. Sin 0 degrees can also be expressed using the equivalent of the given angle (0 degrees) in radians (0 . . .).
We know, using degree to radian conversion, θ in radians = θ in degrees × (pi/180°)
⇒ 0 degrees = 0° × (π/180°) rad = 0π or 0 . . .
∴ sin 0° = sin(0) = 0
Explanation:
For sin 0 degrees, the angle 0° lies on the positive x-axis. Thus, sin 0° value = 0
Since the sine function is a periodic function, we can represent sin 0° as, sin 0 degrees = sin(0° + n × 360°), n ∈ Z.
⇒ sin 0° = sin 360° = sin 720°, and so on.
Note: Since, sine is an odd function, the value of sin(-0°) = -sin(0°) = 0.
Methods to Find Value of Sin 0 Degrees
The value of sin 0° is given as 0. We can find the value of sin 0 degrees by:
- Using Trigonometric Functions
- Using Unit Circle
Sin 0° in Terms of Trigonometric Functions
Using trigonometry formulas, we can represent the sin 0 degrees as:
- ± √(1-cos²(0°))
- ± tan 0°/√(1 + tan²(0°))
- ± 1/√(1 + cot²(0°))
- ± √(sec²(0°) - 1)/sec 0°
- 1/cosec 0°
Note: Since 0° lies on the positive x-axis, the final value of sin 0° will be 0.
We can use trigonometric identities to represent sin 0° as,
- sin(180° - 0°) = sin 180°
- -sin(180° + 0°) = -sin 180°
- cos(90° - 0°) = cos 90°
- -cos(90° + 0°) = -cos 90°
Sin 0 Degrees Using Unit Circle
To find the value of sin 0 degrees using the unit circle:
- Draw the radius of the unit circle, r to form a 0° angle with the positive x-axis. We also know that for the sin 0°, the angle 0° corresponds to the point (1, 0) on the unit circle (as it is a point on the unit circle present on the x-axis).
- The sin of 0 degrees equals the y-coordinate(0) of the point of intersection(1, 0) of the unit circle and r.
Hence the value of sin 0° = y = 0
