Use the formula $\sin(A-B) =\sin A \cos B - \sin B \cos A$ to simplify $\sin(v-3\pi)$ keeping in mind that $\sin(3\pi) = 0$ and $\cos(3\pi) = -1$.

$\tan v = -17$ implies that $\sin v = \cfrac {17}{\sqrt{290}}$ and $\cos v = \cfrac {-1}{\sqrt{290}}$. Use thes values and you will get your answer. I hope you understand.

In the interval given $\forall \theta \in [\pi/2, \pi]$, $\sin \theta \ge 0$ $\cos \theta \le 0$ $\tan\theta \le 0$
