1. What is the sine of 30 degrees?


Solution: The sine of 30 degrees is 0.5.

2. What is the tangent of 45 degrees?


Solution: The tangent of 45 degrees is 1.

3. What is the cosine of 60 degrees?


Solution: The cosine of 60 degrees is 0.5.

4. If sin x = 0.8, what is cos x?


Solution: We know that sin²x + cos²x = 1, so cos x = sqrt(1 - sin²x) = sqrt(1 - 0.64) = 0.6.

5. If tan x = 1/3, what is sin x?


Solution: We know that tan x = sin x / cos x, so sin x = (tan x) (cos x) = (1/3) (sqrt(1 +
(1/9))) = (1/3) (sqrt(10/9)) = sqrt(10)/9.

6. If cos x = -1/2, what is tan x?


Solution: We know that cos x = adj/hyp, so the opposite side must be sqrt(3)/2 (since we
are in the second quadrant). Therefore, tan x = sin x / cos x = -sqrt(3)/3.

7. If sin x = 4/5, what is cos 2x?


Solution: We know that cos 2x = 1 - 2sin²x, so cos 2x = 1 - 2(16/25) = -6/25.

8. If cos x = 1/2, what is sin 2x?


Solution: We know that sin 2x = 2sin x cos x, so sin 2x = 2(√3/2)(1/2) = √3.

9. If tan x = -1/2, what is cot x?


Solution: We know that cot x = 1/tan x, so cot x = -2.

10. If sin x = 3/5, what is the value of cos(x+pi/3)?


Solution: We know that cos(x+pi/3) = cos x cos(pi/3) - sin x sin(pi/3) = (1/2)(3/5) -
(sqrt(3)/2)(4/5) = -sqrt(3)/5.

11. What is the value of tan 60 degrees?


Solution: The value of tan 60 degrees is √3.

12. If sin x = 1/2, what is cos x?


Solution: We know that sin²x + cos²x = 1, so cos x = √(1 - sin²x) = √(1 - 1/4) = √3/2.

13. If cos x = -3/5, what is sin x?


Solution: We know that sin²x + cos²x = 1, so sin x = √(1 - cos²x) = √(1 - 9/25) = 4/5.
14. If tan x = 4/3, what is cot x?
Solution: We know that cot x = 1/tan x, so cot x = 3/4.

15. What is the value of cos 45 degrees?


Solution: The value of cos 45 degrees is 1/√2 or √2/2.

16. If cos x = 0.6, what is the value of sin x?


Solution: We know that sin²x + cos²x = 1, so sin x = √(1 - cos²x) = √(1 - 0.36) = 0.8.

17. If sin x = -1/2, what is the value of cos(π - x)?


Solution: We know that cos(π - x) = -cos x, so cos(π - x) = -√(1 - sin²x) = -√(1 - 1/4) = -
√3/2.

18. What is the value of sec 30 degrees?


Solution: The value of sec 30 degrees is 2/√3 or 2√3/3.

19. If tan x = 2/3, what is the value of sin x?


Solution: We know that sin x = tan x / √(1 + tan²x), so sin x = (2/3) / √(1 + 4/9) = 2/√13.

20. If cos x = -4/5, what is the value of cos(2π - x)?


Solution: We know that cos(2π - x) = -cos x, so cos(2π - x) = -(-4/5) = 4/5.

21. If tan x = 3/4 and cos x < 0, what is the value of sin x?
Solution: We know that sin²x + cos²x = 1, and we also know that tan x = sin x / cos x, so
we can substitute to get sin x / (sqrt(1 - sin²x)) = 3/4. Solving for sin x, we get sin x = -
3/5.

22. If sin x = -1/3 and cos y = 2/3, what is the value of sin(x + y)?
Solution: We know that sin(x + y) = sin x cos y + cos x sin y. Substituting in the given
values, we get sin(x + y) = (-1/3)(2/3) + sqrt(1 - 1/9)(sqrt(3)/3) = -2/9 + (2sqrt(2))/9.

23. If cos x = 1/5 and tan y = 5/12, what is the value of sin(x + y)?
Solution: We know that sin(x + y) = sin x cos y + cos x sin y. Substituting in the given
values, we get sin(x + y) = (1/5)(5/13) + (12/13)(sqrt(24)/13) = 12sqrt(6)/169.

24. If cos x = -3/4, what is the value of tan(3π/2 - x)?


Solution: We know that tan(3π/2 - x) = -cot x, so we need to find the value of cot x. We
know that cos²x + sin²x = 1, and we also know that cos x < 0, so sin x = -sqrt(1 - 9/16) = -
sqrt(7)/4. Therefore, cot x = cos x / sin x = -3sqrt(7)/7, so tan(3π/2 - x) = 7/3sqrt(7).

25. If sin x = 2/3, what is the value of cos(π/2 - 2x)?


Solution: We know that cos(π/2 - 2x) = sin 2x. Using the double angle formula for sin,
we get sin 2x = 2sin x cos x = 4/3.

26. If cos x = -4/5 and cos y = 3/5, what is the value of sin(x + y)?
Solution: We know that sin(x + y) = sin x cos y + cos x sin y. Substituting in the given
values, we get sin(x + y) = (-4/5)(3/5) + (3/5)(sqrt(1 - 16/25)) = -12/25 - (4sqrt(6))/25.

27. If sin x = 3/5 and cos y = -2/3, what is the value of cos(x + y)?
Solution: We know that cos(x + y) = cos x cos y - sin x sin y. Substituting in the given
values, we get cos(x + y) = (3/5)(-2/3) - (4/5)(sqrt(1 - 9/25)) = -26/25.

28. If tan x = 3/4 and cos x < 0, what is the value of sin x?
Solution: We know that sin²x + cos²x = 1, and we also know that tan x = sin x / cos x, so
we can substitute to get sin x / (sqrt(1 - sin²x)) = 3/4. Solving for sin x, we get sin x = -
3/5.

29. If sin x = -1/3 and cos y = 2/3, what is the value of sin(x + y)?
Solution: We know that sin(x + y) = sin x cos y + cos x sin y. Substituting in the given
values, we get sin(x + y) = (-1/3)(2/3) + sqrt(1 - 1/9)(sqrt(3)/3) = -2/9 + (2sqrt(2))/9.

30. If cos x = 1/5 and tan y = 5/12, what is the value of sin(x + y)?
Solution: We know that sin(x + y) = sin x cos y + cos x sin y. Substituting in the given
values, we get sin(x + y) = (1/5)(5/13) + (12/13)(sqrt(24)/13) = 12sqrt(6)/169.
