    What is sin 355°?

    Answer

    sin 355° ≈
    −0.0872

    Angle in radians: 355° = 71π/36. The point of the angle is in quadrant IV, where sine is negative.

    ≈ — rounded to 4 decimal places. sin 355° can't be written with square roots: 355° is not a multiple of 3°.

    sin 355° = sin(360° − 5°) = −sin 5° ≈ −0.0872

    P(cos 355°, sin 355°) ≈ (0.9962, −0.0872)

    P(cos 355°, sin 355°) ≈ (0.9962, −0.0872)

    Highlighted: the projection on the y-axis — sine, y ≈ −0.0872.

    FAQ

    What is sin 355°?

    sin 355° ≈ −0.0872

    Why does sin 355° have no exact value?

    A trigonometric value of a whole number of degrees can be written with square roots only when the angle is a multiple of 3°. 355° is not, so no such exact form exists; the value is used as a decimal: sin 355° ≈ −0.0872.

    Why does a calculator show −0.0000301 for sin 355?

    The calculator is in radian mode (RAD): it takes sin 355 as the sine of 355 radians, sin 355 rad ≈ −0.0000301. Switch it to degrees (DEG): sin 355° ≈ −0.0872. In radians the value is never undefined: π is irrational, so a whole number of radians never lands exactly on an axis.
