Answer

$$\frac{1}{2}\left(\sqrt{3}\sin \theta + \cos \theta\right) $$

Work Step by Step

Since $$\sin(x+y)= \sin x\cos y+\cos x\sin y $$ Then \begin{align*} \sin(\theta+30^{\circ})&= \sin \theta\cos 30^{\circ}+\cos \theta\sin 30^{\circ}\\ &= \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\sin \theta + \frac{1}{2}\cos \theta\\ &= \frac{1}{2}\left(\sqrt{3}\sin \theta + \cos \theta\right) \end{align*}
