1 answer

To determine which of the options is equivalent to \(\sin\left(\frac{2\pi}{15}\right)\), we will use the fact that \(\frac{2\pi}{15}\) is equivalent to \(12^\circ\) (since \(\frac{2\pi}{15} \times \frac{180}{\pi} = 12^\circ\)). Therefore, we have:

\[ \sin\left(\frac{2\pi}{15}\right) = \sin(12^\circ). \]

Now, let's evaluate the provided options:

  1. \(\sin(12^\circ)\): This is \( \sin\left(\frac{2\pi}{15}\right) \).
  2. \(\cos(24^\circ)\): This does not directly relate.
  3. \(\sin(24^\circ)\): This does not relate directly as \(24^\circ\) is not equal to \(\frac{2\pi}{15}\).
  4. \(\cos(12^\circ)\): This does not directly relate.
  5. \(\sin(12^\circ)\) is already confirmed to be equal to \(\sin\left(\frac{2\pi}{15}\right)\).

Since one direct equivalent to \(\sin\left(\frac{2\pi}{15}\right)\) is \(\sin(12^\circ)\), we can conclude:

The answer is \(\sin(12^\circ)\).
