Q. Find the following trigonometric values.\newlineExpress your answers exactly.\newlinecos(225)= \cos \left(225^{\circ}\right)= \newline \square \newlinesin(225)= \sin \left(225^{\circ}\right)= \newline \square
  1. Identify Quadrant: cos(225°)\cos(225°) is in the third quadrant where cosine is negative. Use the reference angle of 45°45°.
  2. Use Reference Angle: cos(225°)=cos(45°)\cos(225°) = -\cos(45°) because cosine is negative in the third quadrant.
  3. Calculate Cosine: cos(45°)=22\cos(45°) = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}. So, cos(225°)=22\cos(225°) = -\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}.
  4. Identify Quadrant: sin(225°)\sin(225°) is also in the third quadrant where sine is negative. Use the reference angle of 45°45°.
  5. Use Reference Angle: sin(225°)=sin(45°)\sin(225°) = -\sin(45°) because sine is negative in the third quadrant.
  6. Calculate Sine: sin(45°)=22\sin(45°) = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}. So, sin(225°)=22\sin(225°) = -\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}.
