Question

Sin x = - 1/2 where (-360 < x < 360)

Answer 1

Answer:

-30, 210 and 330 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression Sin x = - 1/2

x = arcsin(-1/2)

x = -30 degrees

Since sin is negative in the third and fourth quadrant

x = 180 + 30

x = 210 degrees

In the fourth quadrant

x = 360 - 30

x = 330

Hence the value of x within the interval -360 < x < 360 are -30, 210 and 330 degrees
