We draw an angle \displaystyle v in the unit circle, and the fact that \displaystyle \sin v = 3/10 means that its y-coordinate equals \displaystyle 3/10.

With the information that is given, we can define a right-angled triangle in the second quadrant which has a hypotenuse of 1 and a vertical side of length 3/10.

We can determine the triangle's remaining side by using the Pythagorean theorem,
