Problem

Angles having the same sine value. (i) Find all angles θ\theta between 0∘0^\circ and 360∘360^\circ that satisfy sin⁡θ=sin⁡150∘\sin \theta = \sin 150^\circ. (ii) For each angle obtained in part (i), write the exact coordinates (cos⁡θ,sin⁡θ)(\cos \theta,\sin \theta) on the unit circle. (iii) For the angles obtained, compare the corresponding values of tan⁡θ\tan \theta and state any pattern that you observe, supporting your statement with the calculated values.
