Question
Write the value of $\sin\Big\{\frac{\pi}{3}-\sin^{-1}\Big(-\frac{1}{2}\Big)\Big\}.$

Answer

$\sin\Big\{\frac{\pi}{3}-\sin^{-1}\Big(-\frac{1}{2}\Big)\Big\}$
$=\sin\Big\{\frac{\pi}{3}+\sin^{-1}\Big(\frac{1}{2}\Big)\Big\}$ $\big\{\text{Since},\sin^{-1}(-\theta)=-\sin^{-1}\theta\big\}$
$=\sin\Big\{\frac{\pi}{3}+\frac{\pi}{6}\Big\}$ $\Big\{\text{Since},\sin^{-1}\text{x}=\text{An angle in}\Big[-\frac{\pi}{2},\frac{\pi}{2}\Big]\text{whose sine is x}\Big\}$
$=\sin\Big(\frac{\pi}{2}\Big)$
$=1$
Hence,
$\sin\Big\{\frac{\pi}{3}-\sin^{-1}\Big(-\frac{1}{2}\Big)\Big\}=1$
