    /2

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

We know that sin(−θ)=−sinθ.
Therefore:

sin(−300

)=−sin(300

)
Now, we can express 300

as (360

−60

):

sin(300

)=sin(360

−60

)
Since sin(360

−θ)=−sinθ:

sin(300

)=−sin(60

)
Substituting this back into the expression:

sin(−300

)=−(−sin(60

))=sin(60

)
We know that sin(60

)=
2
3




.
Thus, the value is
2
3




.
