This math topic focuses on using Pythagorean identities in trigonometry to solve for sine values, given cosine values and the respective quadrant information. The problems require applying the identity \(\cos^2(x) = 1 - \sin^2(x)\) to determine the sine values, considering the sign based on the quadrant and the tangent's positivity or negativity. This reinforces understanding of trigonometric identities and their applications in different quadrants, helping learners manipulate and solve trigonometric equations effectively.
