sin 38°

검증된 단계별 안내
1
Identify the trigonometric function to evaluate, which is \(\sin 38^\circ\).
Make sure your calculator is set to degree mode since the angle is given in degrees.
Input the angle 38 into the sine function on your calculator, i.e., press the sine button and then enter 38.
Read the value displayed on the calculator, which is the sine of 38 degrees.
Round the result to four decimal places as required.
