# sin({n})

Returns the sine value of radians value `{n}`. `{n}`can be any real number in the range of -1e308 \<= `{n}` \<= 1e308. If `null` is passed as an argument, `sin()` returns `null`.

`sin({n})` takes the following syntax.

```nolang
SELECT SIN(N) as ALIAS
FROM DATASET;
```

## Example

This example takes the sine of 90 degrees.

```nolang
SELECT SIN(RADIANS(90)) as sinValue
FROM "Opportunity"
LIMIT 1;
```
