Solution

The value of `sin  pi/10  sin  (13pi)/10` is `bbunderline(-1/4)`.

Explanation:

`sin  pi/10  sin  (13pi)/10 = sin  pi/10 . sin(pi + (3pi)/10)`

= `sin  pi/10 . (-sin  (3pi)/10)`

= –sin 18° . sin 54°

= –sin 18° . sin(90° – 36°)

= –sin 18° . cos 36°

= `-((sqrt(5) - 1)/4)((sqrt(5) + 1)/4)`   ......`[because sin18^circ = (sqrt(5) - 1)/4, cos 36^circ = (sqrt(5) + 1)/4]`

= `-((5 - 1)/16)`

= `-1/4`
