The value of sin 330° can be found using the unit circle. 330° is in the fourth quadrant, where sine is negative. The reference angle is 30° (since 360° - 330° = 30°). sin 30° = 1/2 = 0.5, so sin 330° = -0.5. The other options are incorrect - 0.6 is not a standard sine value, -1.5 is impossible (sine ranges from -1 to 1), and -1.0 would be sin 270°.
