Answer:


\textsf{b)} \quad -(√(7))/(4)

Explanation:

Trigonometric ratios


\sf \sin(\theta)=(O)/(H)\quad\cos(\theta)=(A)/(H)\quad\tan(\theta)=(O)/(A)

where:

  • θ is the angle.
  • O is the side opposite the angle.
  • A is the side adjacent the angle.
  • H is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle).


\textsf{If}\; \cos(\theta)=-(3)/(4) \implies \sf A=3 \; \textsf{and} \; H=4.

Use Pythagoras Theorem to calculate the length of the opposite side:


\sf \implies O^2+A^2=H^2


\implies \sf O=√(H^2-A^2)


\implies \textsf{O}=√(4^2-3^2)


\implies \textsf{O}=√(7)

Therefore, substituting the values of O and H into the sine ratio:


\implies \sin\theta=(√(7))/(4)

As the terminal side of the angle is in Quadrant III, and sine is negative in Quadrants III and IV, the exact value of sin(θ) is:


\implies \implies \sin\theta=-(√(7))/(4)
