Since \alpha lies in quadrant II and \beta lies in quadrant IV, we expect \sin\alpha>0, \cos\alpha, and \sin\beta.

Recall the Pythagorean identities,

\sin^2x+\cos^2x=1\iff1+\cot^2x=\csc^2x\iff\tan^2x+1=\sec^2x

It follows that

\sec\alpha=\dfrac1{\cos\alpha}=-\sqrt{\tan^2\alpha+1}=-\dfrac{13}5\implies\cos\alpha=-\dfrac5{13}

\sin\alpha=\sqrt{1-\cos^2\alpha}=\dfrac{12}{13}

\sin\beta=-\sqrt{1-\cos^2\beta}=-\dfrac45

Recall the angle sum identity for sine:

\sin(\alpha+\beta)=\sin\alpha\cos\beta+\sin\beta\cos\alpha

So we have

\sin(\alpha+\beta)=\dfrac{12}{13}\dfrac35+\left(-\dfrac45\right)\left(-\dfrac5{13}\right)=\boxed{\dfrac{56}{65}}
