Answer:

d. 0.26

Explanation:

We are asked to find the value of the The sine of the complimentary angle to 75°.

Since we know that complementary angles add up-to 90 degrees, so let us find the measure of complementary angle of 75° angle by subtracting 75° from 90°.


\text{Measure of complementary angle}=90^o-75^0


\text{Measure of complementary angle}=15^0

Now let us find the sine of 15 degree angle. Using a calculator we will get,


sin(15^o)=0.258819045103

Upon rounding our answer to nearest hundredth we will get,


sin(15^o)\approx 0.26

Therefore, the sine of complementary angle to 75° is 0.26 and option 'd' is the correct choice.
