Question

Find the exact value of sin 15 degrees

Answer 1

Answer:

Hi,

Step-by-step explanation:

sin(a-b)=sin(a) cos(b)+ cos(a) sin(b)

a=45° and b=30°

$sin(45^o-30^o)=sin(45^o)*cos(30^o)+cos(45^o)*sin(30^o)\\\\=\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}* \dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2}+\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}*\dfrac{1}{2}\\\\\\\boxed{sin(15^o)=\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{4}*(1+\sqrt{3} )}$
