Given `costheta=-(2)/(3) and (pi)/(2)lt theta lt pi`, find sin`2theta`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Since sin `2theta=2(sintheta)(costheta)`, you need to determine the value of `sintheta`. For the figrue
below, you can see that `sintheta=(sqrt(5))/(3)`. Therefore, `sin 2theta=2(sqrt(5))/(3)(-(2)/(3))=-(4)/(9)sqrt(5)`.
