Answer

Final Answer: \(\sin \theta = \boxed{-\frac{\sqrt{10}}{3} \cdot \sqrt{1 - \left(-\frac{\sqrt{10}}{3}\right)^2 / \left(1 + \left(-\frac{\sqrt{10}}{3}\right)^2\right)}}\) or approximately, \(\sin \theta = \boxed{-0.7254762501100117}\)

Steps

Step 1 :Given that \(\tan \theta = -\frac{\sqrt{10}}{3}\) and \(\cos \theta > 0\)

Step 2 :We know that \(\tan \theta = \frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}\), so we can express \(\sin \theta\) as \(\sin \theta = \tan \theta \cdot \cos \theta\)

Step 3 :Substitute the given values into the equation to find \(\sin \theta\)

Step 4 :Final Answer: \(\sin \theta = \boxed{-\frac{\sqrt{10}}{3} \cdot \sqrt{1 - \left(-\frac{\sqrt{10}}{3}\right)^2 / \left(1 + \left(-\frac{\sqrt{10}}{3}\right)^2\right)}}\) or approximately, \(\sin \theta = \boxed{-0.7254762501100117}\)
