what is the exact value of sin(11pi/12)?

What is the exact value of sin(11π/12), and how can trigonometric identities be applied to derive this value?

(1 – 3cosx – 4cos^2x) / sin^2x = (1 – 4cosx)/ (1 – cosx)?

How can I manipulate the expression ((1 - 3\cos x - 4\cos^2 x) / \sin^2 x) to show that it is equal to ((1 - 4\cos x) / (1 - \cos x)) without altering the right side of the equation?
