Sure. I could also say that the factorial is 3 radians^2 * 2 radians^2 
and get yet something else as a result. I don't get it. You need to 
explain some mathematical principles underlying what you're doing and 
not just try to come up with something that seems to fit in this 
particular case. You have to explain not just sin(x), but log(x) and 
arcsin(x), too.
