Find the values of $sin( heta)$ and $cos( heta)$ where $ heta$ is $frac{5pi}{4}$ radians on the unit circle

Answer 1

Abigail Nelson

Maria Rodriguez

Given $\theta = \frac{5\pi}{4}$, we need to find the values of $\sin(\theta)$ and $\cos(\theta)$ on the unit circle.

The angle $\frac{5\pi}{4}$ is in the third quadrant where both sine and cosine are negative.

In the third quadrant, for an angle of $\frac{5\pi}{4}$,

$\sin\left(\frac{5\pi}{4}\right) = -\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$

$\cos\left(\frac{5\pi}{4}\right) = -\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$

Answer 2

The angle $frac{5pi}{4}$ is in the third quadrant where both sine and cosine are negative.

Therefore,

$sinleft(frac{5pi}{4}
ight) = -frac{sqrt{2}}{2}$

$cosleft(frac{5pi}{4}
ight) = -frac{sqrt{2}}{2}$

The angle $frac{5pi}{4}$ is in the third quadrant.

$sinleft(frac{5pi}{4}
ight) = -frac{sqrt{2}}{2}$

$cosleft(frac{5pi}{4}
ight) = -frac{sqrt{2}}{2}$
