`225^@ = 300^@ - 45^@` Find the exact values of the sine, cosine, and tangent of the angle.

`sin(u-v)=sin(u)cos(v)-cos(u)sin(v)`


`sin(300-45)=sin(300)cos(45)-cos(300)sin(45)`


`sin(300-45)=(-sqrt3/2)(sqrt2/2)-(1/2)(sqrt2/2)=-sqrt2/4(sqrt3+1)`



`cos(u-v)=cos(u)cos(v)+sin(u)sin(v)`


`cos(300-45)=cos(300)cos(45)+sin(300)sin(45)`


`cos(300-45)=(1/2)(sqrt2/2)+(-sqrt3/2)(sqrt2/2)=sqrt2/4(1-sqrt3)`



`tan(u-v)=(tan(u)-tan(v))/(1-tan(u)tan(v))`


`tan(300-45)=(tan(300)-tan(45))/(1-tan(300)tan(45))=(-sqrt3-1)/(1-sqrt3(1))=(-sqrt3-1)/(1-sqrt3)`


The rationalized answer is `sqrt3+2.`
