Step 1 :The reference angle is the acute angle that the given angle makes with the x-axis. For an angle of \(225^\circ\), the reference angle is \(225^\circ - 180^\circ = 45^\circ\).
Step 2 :The angle \(225^\circ\) is in the third quadrant. In this quadrant, both sine and cosine are negative.
Step 3 :Using the reference angle, we know that \(\sin(45^\circ) = \cos(45^\circ) = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\).
Step 4 :Therefore, \(\sin \left(225^\circ\right) = -\sin \left(45^\circ\right) = -\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\) and \(\cos \left(225^\circ\right) = -\cos \left(45^\circ\right) = -\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\).
