 π 
Three Steps to solve sin  n ⋅ ±θ 
 2 
Step I: First check that n is even or odd
Step II: If n is even then the answer will be in sin and if the n is odd then sin will be converted to cos
and vice virsa (i.e. cos will be converted to sin).
π
Step III: Now check in which quadrant n ⋅ ± θ is lying if it is in Ist or IInd quadrant the answer
2
will be positive as sin is positive in these quadrants and if it is in the IIIrd or IVth quadrant the
answer will be negative.
e.g. sin 667 o = sin ( 7(90) + 37 )
Since n = 7 is odd so answer will be in cos and 667 is in IVth quadrant and sin is –ive in IVth
o o
quadrant therefore answer will be in negative. i.e sin 667 = − cos37
Similar technique is used for other trigonometric ratios. i.e tan € cot and sec € csc .
