Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, the terminal side is the side of an angle after rotation, that is the final position of the ray whose rotation created an angle.

Now, given a point P(x, y) on the terminal side of an angle θ in standard position, distance d from the origin, its sine is


\sin(\theta)=(y)/(d)

Notice that in this case, the angle is measured in a unit circle, then d=1.

Thus, we can conclude that the correct answer is:

Answer:
\sin(\theta)=\text{ -}(√(2))/(5)
