Worked practice questions

$\sin(180° - \theta)$ equals:

  1. $-\cos\theta$
  2. $-\sin\theta$
  3. $\sin\theta$
  4. $\cos\theta$
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: C. $\sin\theta$

Supplementary-angle identity: $\sin(180° - \theta) = \sin\theta$. Reason: sine is positive in the second quadrant (where $180° - \theta$ lies for $0° < \theta < 180°$), and the reference angle is $\theta$. Companion identities: - $\cos(180° - \theta) = -\cos\theta$ - $\tan(180° - \theta) = -\tan\theta$
