Answer:

[tex]-3/\sqrt{58}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

tan = opposite / adjacent

opposite side is the y-coordinate of a point on the terminal side

adjacent side is the x-coordinate of a point on the terminal side

if the terminal side is in the second quadrant (the top-left quadrant), a coordinate on the terminal side would have a negative x-coordinate and a positive y-coordinate

This being the case:

the opposite side (y) would be -3 and the adjacent side (x) would be 7

using the Pythagorean theorem:

[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]

[tex]7^2+(-3)^2=c^2[/tex]

The hypotenuse is c, so it equals [tex]\sqrt{58}[/tex]

sin = opposite / hypotenuse

so sin(theta) = [tex]-3/\sqrt{58}[/tex]
