Answer

$sin(2\theta) = -\frac{24}{25}$

Work Step by Step

If $90^{\circ} \lt \theta \lt 180^{\circ}$, then the angle $\theta$ is in quadrant II. If the hypotenuse is 5, and the adjacent side has a length of 3, then the length of the opposite side is $\sqrt{5^2-3^2} = 4$ $sin(2\theta) = 2~sin~\theta~cos~\theta$ $sin(2\theta) = (2)(\frac{4}{5})(-\frac{3}{5})$ $sin(2\theta) = -\frac{24}{25}$
