  4. D19/2

Correct answer

D. 19/2

Step-by-step solution

sin⁡25∘+sin⁡210∘+sin⁡215∘+………..+………..+sin⁡275∘+sin⁡280∘+sin⁡285∘+sin⁡290∘⇒sin⁡25∘+sin⁡210∘+sin⁡215∘+……..sin⁡2(90−15∘)+sin⁡2(90−10)+sin⁡2(90−5)+1⇒sin⁡25+sin⁡210+sin⁡215∘+……..+cos⁡215∘+cos⁡210∘+cos⁡25∘+1⇒(1+1+1+….8 times )+sin⁡245∘+1⇒8+12+1=192\begin{aligned} & \sin ^2 5^{{}^{\circ}}+\sin ^2 10^{{}^{\circ}}+\sin ^2 15^{{}^{\circ}}+\ldots \ldots \ldots..+\ldots \ldots \ldots..+\sin ^2 75^{{}^{\circ}}+ \\ & \sin ^2 80^{{}^{\circ}}+\sin ^2 85^{{}^{\circ}}+\sin ^2 90^{{}^{\circ}} \\ & \Rightarrow \sin ^2 5^{{}^{\circ}}+\sin ^2 10^{{}^{\circ}}+\sin ^2 15^{{}^{\circ}}+\ldots \ldots.. \sin ^2\left(90-15^{{}^{\circ}}\right)+ \\ & \sin ^2(90-10)+\sin ^2(90-5)+1 \\ & \Rightarrow \sin ^2 5+\sin ^2 10+\sin ^2 15^{{}^{\circ}}+\ldots \ldots..+\cos ^2 15^{{}^{\circ}}+ \\ & \cos ^2 10^{{}^{\circ}}+\cos ^2 5^{{}^{\circ}}+1 \\ & \Rightarrow(1+1+1+\ldots.8 \text{ times })+\sin ^2 45^{{}^{\circ}}+1 \\ & \Rightarrow 8+\frac{1}{2}+1=\frac{19}{2} \end{aligned}
