    Sin, Cos, Tan, Cot of an Angle
    Function
    Angle (°)

    What is sin 76°?

    Answer

    sin 76° ≈
    0.9703

    Angle in radians: 76° = 19π/45. The point of the angle is in quadrant I, where sine is positive.

    ≈ — rounded to 4 decimal places. sin 76° can't be written with square roots: 76° is not a multiple of 3°.

    P(cos 76°, sin 76°) ≈ (0.2419, 0.9703)

    xyOP

    P(cos 76°, sin 76°) ≈ (0.2419, 0.9703)

    Highlighted: the projection on the y-axis — sine, y ≈ 0.9703.

    FAQ

    What is sin 76°?

    sin 76° ≈ 0.9703

    Why does sin 76° 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°. 76° is not, so no such exact form exists; the value is used as a decimal: sin 76° ≈ 0.9703.

    Why does a calculator show 0.5661 for sin 76?

    The calculator is in radian mode (RAD): it takes sin 76 as the sine of 76 radians, sin 76 rad ≈ 0.5661. Switch it to degrees (DEG): sin 76° ≈ 0.9703. In radians the value is never undefined: π is irrational, so a whole number of radians never lands exactly on an axis.
