    Function
    Angle (°)

    What is sin 77°?

    Answer

    sin 77° ≈
    0.9744

    Angle in radians: 77° = 77π/180. The point of the angle is in quadrant I, where sine is positive.

    ≈ — rounded to 4 decimal places. sin 77° can't be written with square roots: 77° is not a multiple of 3°.

    P(cos 77°, sin 77°) ≈ (0.2250, 0.9744)

    P(cos 77°, sin 77°) ≈ (0.2250, 0.9744)

    Highlighted: the projection on the y-axis — sine, y ≈ 0.9744.

    FAQ

    What is sin 77°?

    sin 77° ≈ 0.9744

    Why does sin 77° 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°. 77° is not, so no such exact form exists; the value is used as a decimal: sin 77° ≈ 0.9744.

    Why does a calculator show 0.9995 for sin 77?

    The calculator is in radian mode (RAD): it takes sin 77 as the sine of 77 radians, sin 77 rad ≈ 0.9995. Switch it to degrees (DEG): sin 77° ≈ 0.9744. In radians the value is never undefined: π is irrational, so a whole number of radians never lands exactly on an axis.
