Answer

$f(-\frac{4\pi}{5}=1$ because having a period of $\pi$ means that the sine function will repeats its value for every interval of $\pi$. Since $\frac{6\pi}{5}-2\pi=-\frac{4\pi}{4}$, then $f(\frac{6\pi}{5})=f(-\frac{4\pi}{5})$

Work Step by Step

Note that $-\frac{4\pi}{5} = \frac{6\pi}{5}-2\pi$. If a sine function has a period of $\pi$, then the function's value repeats (or the same) for every interval of $\pi$. Thus, if $f(\frac{6\pi}{5}=1$, then $f(\frac{6\pi}{5}-2\pi)=f(\frac{6\pi}{5} - \frac{10\pi}{5})=f(-\frac{4\pi}{5})=1$$
