sin(120)
\n" ); document.write( "Since 120 is in the 2nd quadrant, the reference angle is 180 - 120 or 60 degrees.
\n" ); document.write( "sin(60) = \"sqrt%283%29%2F2\"
\n" ); document.write( "Since sin is positive in the 2nd quadrant sin(120) = \"sqrt%283%29%2F2\"

\n" ); document.write( "cos(300)
\n" ); document.write( "Since 300 is in the 4th quadrant, the reference angle is 360-300 = 60 degrees.
\n" ); document.write( "cos(60) = 1/2
\n" ); document.write( "Since cos is positive in the 4th quadrant, cos(300) = 1/2 and \"cos%5E2%28300%29+=+%281%2F2%29%5E2+=+1%2F4\"

\n" ); document.write( "tan(135)
\n" ); document.write( "Since 135 is in the 2nd quadrant, the reference angle is 180 - 135 = 45 degrees.
\n" ); document.write( "tan(45) = 1
\n" ); document.write( "Since tan is negative in the 2nd quadrant, tan(135) = -1 and \"tan%5E2%28135%29+=+%28-1%29%5E2+=+1\"

\n" ); document.write( "Since I cannot tell if you problem is
\n" ); document.write( "\"sin%28120%29%2Bcos%5E2%28300%29%2Ftan%5E2%28135%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "or
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28sin%28120%29%2Bcos%5E2%28300%29%29%2Ftan%5E2%28135%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "I'll leave it up to you to substitute in the values for sin(120), \"cos%5E2%28300%29\" and \"tan%5E2%28135%29\" and simplify.

\n" );
