The value of sin(3pi/2), that is, sin 270° is equal to -1. So the formula of sin(3π/2) is given by sin $\frac{3\pi}{2}$ = -1. Here we will learn how to find the value of sin 3pi/2. Note that
- sin(3pi/2) is the value of sine trigonometric function for 3π/2 radians.
- sin(3π/2) = -1.
- sin(3π/2) in degrees is equal to sin 270°.
- sin 270 = -1.
Sin 3pi/2 Value
Question: What is the value of sin(3pi/2)?
Answer: sin(3π/2) is equal to -1.
Explanation:
One can obtain the value of sin(3pi/2) by applying the formula of sin3x in terms of sinx. The formula is given below:
sin3x = 3sinx – 4sin3x.
Put x=π/2. Therefore,
sin(3π/2) = 3sin(π/2) – 4sin3(π/2)
⇒ sin(3π/2) = 3 ⋅ 1 – 4⋅13 as the value of sin(π/2) is 1.
⇒ sin(3π/2) = 3 – 4
⇒ sin(3π/2) = -1.
So the value of sin 3pi/2 is equal to -1.

Value of sin(-3pi/2)
By the rule sin(-θ) =-sinθ, we have that
sin(-3π/2) = – sin(3π/2) = -(-1), by the above.
∴sin(-3π/2) = 1.
So the value of sin(-3pi/2) is equal to 1.
