Solution Steps

Step 1: Evaluate \(\sin\left(-\frac{5\pi}{4}\right)\)
  • The sine function is odd, meaning \(\sin(-x) = -\sin(x)\).
  • Therefore, \(\sin\left(-\frac{5\pi}{4}\right) = -\sin\left(\frac{5\pi}{4}\right)\).
  • The angle \(\frac{5\pi}{4}\) lies in the third quadrant, where sine is negative.
  • The reference angle for \(\frac{5\pi}{4}\) is \(\frac{\pi}{4}\), and \(\sin\left(\frac{\pi}{4}\right) = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\).
  • Thus, \(\sin\left(\frac{5\pi}{4}\right) = -\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\), and \(\sin\left(-\frac{5\pi}{4}\right) = -\left(-\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\right) = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\).
Step 2: Evaluate \(\cos\left(-\frac{5\pi}{4}\right)\)
  • The cosine function is even, meaning \(\cos(-x) = \cos(x)\).
  • Therefore, \(\cos\left(-\frac{5\pi}{4}\right) = \cos\left(\frac{5\pi}{4}\right)\).
  • The angle \(\frac{5\pi}{4}\) lies in the third quadrant, where cosine is negative.
  • The reference angle for \(\frac{5\pi}{4}\) is \(\frac{\pi}{4}\), and \(\cos\left(\frac{\pi}{4}\right) = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\).
  • Thus, \(\cos\left(\frac{5\pi}{4}\right) = -\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\), and \(\cos\left(-\frac{5\pi}{4}\right) = -\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\).
Step 3: Select the correct choices
  • For \(\sin\left(-\frac{5\pi}{4}\right)\), the correct choice is A, and the value is \(\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\).
  • For \(\cos\left(-\frac{5\pi}{4}\right)\), the correct choice is A, and the value is \(-\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\).

Final Answer

For \(\sin\left(-\frac{5\pi}{4}\right)\), the answer is \(\boxed{\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}}\).
For \(\cos\left(-\frac{5\pi}{4}\right)\), the answer is \(\boxed{-\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}}\).
