sketch each angle and its reference triangle in the unit circle. then sketch use the sketch to find each exact value. problem below.
sin 2π/3
------
Note:: 2pi/3 is in QII
To find the reference angle find the angle between the given angle
and the x-axis.
--------------------
Reference angle is pi - (2/3)pi = (1/3)pi
------
Note:: Sin is positive in QII and in QI
---
Sin(2pi/3) = Sin(pi/3) = 1/2
