how would i show that sin (-θ) = -sin θ
using x in place of theta
..
Explaining it graphically:
By convention, positive angle are rotated counter-clockwise, and negative angles, clockwise.
The sin of an angle in quadrants I and II are always positive and in quadrants III and IV always negative.
For example, if the angle is positive and less than 180� sin x will be positive in quadrants I and II, but if the angle is negative, you will reverse direction and end up in quadrants II or IV where sin x will be negative. No matter what the angle, sin (-x)=-sin x. Try it with any angle. Hope this helps.

sin(-θ) = sin(0-θ)

sin(-θ) = sin(0)cos(θ)-cos(0)sin(θ)

sin(-θ) = 0*cos(θ)-1*sin(θ)

sin(-θ) = 0-sin(θ)

sin(-θ) = -sin(θ)
