Math Problem Statement
Emily is preparing for an upcoming event where she will be using props designed by someone else. She needs to find the exact calculations for an angle that has been given in radians so that she can ensure that the props are set up correctly. The angle in question is π3π3 radians. Emily specifically needs to know the exact value of the sine of this angle.
Find the exact value of sin(π/3).
Solution
To find the exact value of , we can refer to the unit circle or use trigonometric identities.
The angle radians corresponds to 60° in degrees.
The sine of or radians is a well-known value:
