\n" ); document.write( "There is not enough information to find the exact value.

\n" ); document.write( "\"sin%28x-y%29+=+%28sinx%29%28cosy%29-%28cosx%29%28siny%29\"

\n" ); document.write( "Given sinx = 4/9, we know cosx is EITHER sqrt(65)/9 OR -*sqrt(65)/9;
\n" ); document.write( "given siny = 1/4, we know cosx is EITHER sqrt(15)/4 OR -sqrt(15)/4.

\n" ); document.write( "Since there is no information allowing us to determine which values to use for cosx and cosy, we can't find the value of sin(x-y).
