To determine

The value of the expression, $\sin {17}^0$ rounded to three decimal places using a calculator.

Answer to Problem 13CT

Solution:

The value of the expression $\sin {17}^0$ is approximately $0.292$.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The expression, $\sin {17}^0$

Explanation:

Let, the expression be $\sin {17}^0$.

To find the value of the expression using calculator first set the mode of calculator to receive degrees.

By using calculator, $\sin {17}^0=0.2923717047$

Rounding to three decimal places gives, $\sin {17}^0\approx 0.292$.

Hence, the value of the expression $\sin {17}^0$ is approximately $0.292$.
