tan α = 12/5, α lies in quadrant III, and cos β = -20/29 , β lies in quadrant II Find sin (α + β). A) -152/377, B)352/377, C) 345/377, D)135/377


tan%28alpha%29=12%2F5%29 
so in III 
r=sqrt%2812%5E2%2B5%5E2%29=13
sin%28alpha%29=-12%2F13
cos%28alpha%29=-5%2F13 
in II 
sin%28beta%29=sqrt%281-%28-20%2F29%29%5E2%29=21%2F29 

sin%28alpha%2Bbeta%29=sin%28alpha%29cos%28beta%29%2Bcos%28alpha%29sin%28beta%29
