we can calculate sin 15° by using the formula  sin (x/2) =(√((1−cos x)/2)) with x=30° ⇒  ⇒ sin 15° =(((√6)−(√2))/4); cos 15° =(((√6)+(√2))/4)  sin 18° =cos 72° is known from the regular  pentagon  sin 18° =(((√5)−1)/4); cos 18° =((√(10+2(√5)))/4)  now  sin 3° =sin (18°−15°) =sin 18° cos 15° −cos 18° sin 15° =  =((2(1−(√3))(√(5+(√5)))−(1−(√5))(1+(√3))(√2))/(16))  cos 3° =(√(1−sin^2  3°))  sin 6° =sin 2×3° =2sin 3° cos 3° =  ...  =((√(9−(√5)−(√(30+6(√5)))))/4)≈.104528

generally we can give exact values for  trigonometric functions of n×3° with n∈Z

Or we can use the arc subtraction sin(6°)=sin(36°−30°)⇒sin(36°)cos(30°)−sin(30°)cos(36°)⇒((√(10−2(√5)))/4)×((√3)/2)−(1/2)×(((√5)+1)/4)⇒(((√(30−6(√5)))−(√5)−1)/8)=0.104528∙∙∙
