Find the exact value of sin(u+v) given that sin u=3/5 and cos v= -24/25. (Both u and v are in quadrant 2.)

Hello!


We know the formula but it is not enough because we a given only and  but neither  nor


But we can find them using the identity and the information about the quadrant. Indeed, in the quadrant 2 sine is positive while cosine is negative, i.e.

This way we obtain





It is not hard to find too, using the similar formula
