What is the Value of Sin 7pi/12?
The value of sin 7pi/12 in decimal is 0.965925826. . .. Sin 7pi/12 can also be expressed using the equivalent of the given angle (7pi/12) in degrees (105°).
We know, using radian to degree conversion, θ in degrees = θ in radians × (180°/pi)
⇒ 7pi/12 radians = 7pi/12 × (180°/pi) = 105° or 105 degrees
∴ sin 7pi/12 = sin 7π/12 = sin(105°) = (√6 + √2)/4 or 0.9659258. . .
Explanation:
For sin 7pi/12, the angle 7pi/12 lies between pi/2 and pi (Second Quadrant). Since sine function is positive in the second quadrant, thus sin 7pi/12 value = (√6 + √2)/4 or 0.9659258. . .
Since the sine function is a periodic function, we can represent sin 7pi/12 as, sin 7pi/12 = sin(7pi/12 + n × 2pi), n ∈ Z.
⇒ sin 7pi/12 = sin 31pi/12 = sin 55pi/12 , and so on.
Note: Since, sine is an odd function, the value of sin(-7pi/12) = -sin(7pi/12).
