To reduce cos 1102° to the sine of an acute angle, we need to remember that cos x = sin(90° - x).
Therefore, cos 1102° = sin(90° - 1102°)
= sin(-1012°)
Since the reference angle should be positive, we add 360° to -1012° to get a positive acute angle:
-1012° + 360° = -652°
Therefore, cos 1102° = sin(-652°)
= sin 652°
So, cos 1102° can be reduced to sin 652°, where 652° is an acute angle.
