Help urgent maths

Help I don’t get why he made sin angle equal to zero as the minimum…. Wouldn’t it be minus one as the minimumIMG_2739.jpeg

Its sin^2 so the minimum is when its zero
Assuming that 4 + 100sin(angle)^2 means sinSquared (idk if it's sin squared or the angle squared):

If sin(angle) = -1 then sin^2(angle) = 1 so H(theta) = 4 + 100 = 104

But if you have sin(angle) = 0 then sin^2(angle) = 0 so H(theta) = 4 + 100(0) = 4
