sin(5/2 pi)

Solution

sin (\frac{5}{2} π)

Solution

1

Solution steps

sin (\frac{5}{2} π)

Simplify:

\frac{5}{2} π = \frac{5 π}{2}

\frac{5}{2} π

Multiply fractions:

a \cdot \frac{b}{c} = \frac{a \cdot b}{c}

= \frac{5 π}{2}

= sin (\frac{5 π}{2})

sin (\frac{5 π}{2}) = sin (\frac{π}{2})

sin (\frac{5 π}{2})

Rewrite

\frac{5 π}{2}

as

2 π + \frac{π}{2}

= sin (2 π + \frac{π}{2})

Apply the periodicity of

sin

:

sin (x + 2 π) = sin (x)

sin (2 π + \frac{π}{2}) = sin (\frac{π}{2})

= sin (\frac{π}{2})

= sin (\frac{π}{2})

Use the following trivial identity:

sin (\frac{π}{2}) = 1

sin (\frac{π}{2})

sin (x)
