Question
find the exact value of \\( \sin 60 ^ { \circ } + \sin 120 ^ { \circ } - \sin 240 ^ { \circ } + \sin 300 ^ { \circ } \\).
select the correct choice below and fill in any answer boxes in your choice.
\\( \bigcirc \\) a. \\( \sin 60 ^ { \circ } + \sin 120 ^ { \circ } - \sin 240 ^ { \circ } + \sin 300 ^ { \circ } = \\)
(type an exact answer, using radicals as needed.)
\\( \bigcirc \\) b. the answer is undefined.
Step1: Find the value of each trigonometric function
- $\sin60^{\circ}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$
- $\sin120^{\circ}=\sin(180^{\circ} - 60^{\circ})=\sin60^{\circ}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$
- $\sin240^{\circ}=\sin(180^{\circ}+60^{\circ})=-\sin60^{\circ}=-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$
- $\sin300^{\circ}=\sin(360^{\circ}-60^{\circ})=-\sin60^{\circ}=-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$
Step2: Substitute the values into the expression
