The correct Answer is:
To solve the question of comparing \( \sin(1^\circ) \) and \( \sin(1) \) (where \( 1 \) is in radians), we will follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Values**: - We need to compare \( \sin(1^\circ) \) and \( \sin(1) \). - Here, \( 1^\circ \) is an angle in degrees, while \( 1 \) is an angle in radians. 2. **Convert Degrees to Radians**: - To convert degrees to radians, we use the conversion factor: \[ \text{Radians} = \text{Degrees} \times \frac{\pi}{180} \] - Thus, \( 1^\circ \) in radians is: \[ 1^\circ = 1 \times \frac{\pi}{180} \approx 0.01745 \text{ radians} \] 3. **Evaluate the Sine Values**: - Now we need to find the values of \( \sin(1^\circ) \) and \( \sin(1) \): - \( \sin(1^\circ) \) can be calculated using a calculator or sine table: \[ \sin(1^\circ) \approx 0.017452 \] - \( \sin(1) \) (where \( 1 \) is in radians): \[ \sin(1) \approx 0.841471 \] 4. **Comparison**: - Now we compare the two values: \[ \sin(1^\circ) \approx 0.017452 \quad \text{and} \quad \sin(1) \approx 0.841471 \] - Clearly, \( \sin(1) > \sin(1^\circ) \). 5. **Conclusion**: - From the comparison, we conclude: \[ \sin(1) > \sin(1^\circ) \] - Therefore, the correct statement is: \[ \sin(1) \text{ is greater than } \sin(1^\circ). \] ### Final Answer: The correct option is that \( \sin(1) > \sin(1^\circ) \). ---
