Answer:

sin2θ = -
(24)/(25)

Explanation:

Given

cosθ =
(3)/(5) =
(adjacent)/(hypotenuse) and in fourth quadrant

Then this is a 3- 4- 5 triangle with opposite side = 4

sinθ < 0 in fourth quadrant, then

sinθ = -
(opposite)/(hypotenuse) = -
(4)/(5)

Using the double angle identity for sine

sin2θ = 2sinθcosθ

= 2 × -
(4)/(5) ×
(3)/(5) = -
(24)/(25)
