Description

The Java Math sin(double x) returns the trigonometric sine of a double value.Special cases −

• If the argument is NaN or an infinity, then the result is NaN.

• If the argument is zero, then the result is a zero with the same sign as the argument.

The computed result must be within 1 ulps of the exact result.

Declaration

Following is the declaration for java.lang.Math.sin() method

public static double sin(double x)

Parameters

x − The number whose trigonometric sine is to be returned.

Return Value

This method returns the trigonometric sine of x.

Exception

NA

Example: Getting Trigonometric sine value for a Positive double value

The following example shows the usage of Math sin() method to get a trigonometric sine value for a positive double value.

package com.tutorialspoint;
public class MathDemo {
   public static void main(String[] args) {

      // get a double number
      double x = 45.0;

      // convert it to radian
      x = Math.toRadians(x);

      // print the trigonometric sine for this double
      System.out.println("Math.sin(" + x + ")=" + Math.sin(x));
   }
}

Output

Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −

Math.sin(0.7853981633974483)=0.7071067811865475

Example: Getting Trigonometric sine value for a Negative double value

The following example shows the usage of Math sin() method to get a trigonometric sine of a negative double value.

package com.tutorialspoint;
public class MathDemo {
   public static void main(String[] args) {

      // get a double number
      double x = -45.0;

      // convert it to radian
      x = Math.toRadians(x);

      // print the trigonometric sine for this double
      System.out.println("Math.sin(" + x + ")=" + Math.sin(x));
   }
}

Output

Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −

Math.sin(-0.7853981633974483)=-0.7071067811865475

Example: Getting Trigonometric sine value for a Zero double value

The following example shows the usage of Math sin() method to get a value of a zero double values.

package com.tutorialspoint;
public class MathDemo {
   public static void main(String[] args) {

      // get a double number
      double x = 0.0;

      // convert it to radian
      x = Math.toRadians(x);

      // print the trigonometric sine for this double
      System.out.println("Math.sin(" + x + ")=" + Math.sin(x));
   }
}

Output

Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −

Math.sin(0.0)=0.0
