Sagot :

Check the picture below.

[tex]\textit{Sum and Difference Identities} \\\\ sin(\alpha + \beta)=sin(\alpha)cos(\beta) + cos(\alpha)sin(\beta) \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ sin(255^o)\implies sin(135^o+120^o) \\\\\\ sin(135^o)cos(120^o)~~ + ~~cos(135^o)sin(120^o) \\\\\\ \left( \cfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2} \right)\left( -\cfrac{1}{2} \right)~~ + ~~\left( -\cfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2} \right)\left( \cfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \right)\implies -\cfrac{\sqrt{2}}{4}~~ - ~~\cfrac{\sqrt{6}}{4}\implies \cfrac{-2-\sqrt{6}}{4}[/tex]
