The correct Answer is:
To find the value of \( \sin 2\theta \) given that \( \sin \theta = \frac{4}{5} \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Use the double angle formula for sine The formula for \( \sin 2\theta \) is: \[ \sin 2\theta = 2 \sin \theta \cos \theta \] ### Step 2: Find \( \cos \theta \) We know that: \[ \cos^2 \theta + \sin^2 \theta = 1 \] Substituting \( \sin \theta = \frac{4}{5} \): \[ \cos^2 \theta + \left(\frac{4}{5}\right)^2 = 1 \] Calculating \( \left(\frac{4}{5}\right)^2 \): \[ \cos^2 \theta + \frac{16}{25} = 1 \] Now, subtract \( \frac{16}{25} \) from both sides: \[ \cos^2 \theta = 1 - \frac{16}{25} \] To combine the fractions, convert 1 to have a denominator of 25: \[ \cos^2 \theta = \frac{25}{25} - \frac{16}{25} = \frac{9}{25} \] Taking the square root gives: \[ \cos \theta = \sqrt{\frac{9}{25}} = \frac{3}{5} \] ### Step 3: Substitute values into the double angle formula Now we can substitute \( \sin \theta \) and \( \cos \theta \) back into the double angle formula: \[ \sin 2\theta = 2 \left(\frac{4}{5}\right) \left(\frac{3}{5}\right) \] Calculating this gives: \[ \sin 2\theta = 2 \cdot \frac{4 \cdot 3}{5 \cdot 5} = 2 \cdot \frac{12}{25} = \frac{24}{25} \] ### Final Answer Thus, the value of \( \sin 2\theta \) is: \[ \sin 2\theta = \frac{24}{25} \] ---
