sin (-pi/12)
4 answers
yes
well pi is 180 degrees
180/12 = 15
so we really want sin(-15 degrees)
But I know that sin 30 = 1/2
and that cos 30 = (1/2) sqrt 3
and I know how to find the sine of half an angle if I have the cosine of the whole angle
180/12 = 15

sin(-15)º = sin(30-45)º
can you take it from there?
