find theta for 0deg
find theta for 0deg <_ theta < 360deg sin theta = -0.8516
Solution
sin theta = -0.8516 and 0deg <_ theta < 360deg
theta is sin(theta ) is -ve , so theta is in IIIrd or IVrth quadrant.
theta = sin^-1( -0.8516);
AS theta = sin^-1( 0.8516) = 58.56 deg
theta is in IIIrd or IVrth quadrant.
So, theta = 58.86 + 180 = 238.38 deg
and theta = 360 -58.86 = 301.64 deg
