    values of θ
    Find all values for θ such that 0≤θ<2π
    a. cos(θ)=1

    θ=0

    b. sin(θ)=0.5

    θ=30,150

    is this ans. Are right??

    I want help in this que. Sin(θ)= π (pi)

    Perito
    a. Don't forget

    b. for you are correct



    But -1 ≤ sin(θ) ≤ 1 and π > 1. so it's not defined except as a complex number

    hey can you help me with this a.sin(θ)=1/√2
    b. tan(θ)=1/2

    Most scientific calculators have ArcSin and ArcTan functions on them. ArcSin is "the angle whose sine is". It's also written . This does not imply that



    ArcTan is the same type of thing.

    You can also solve this type of problem using a "unit circle".
