Calculation using lookup table
The calculation is based on a table from 0-90° and on values which are multiplicated by 32767. If you want to get the correct sinus value, you have to divide them by 32767 (you can use 32768 - not a big precision lost, but you can use bit shifting).
Input: HL = angle in degree (0-360°)
Output: HL = SIN(HL) * 32767, A = sign flag (0 if positive, &FF if negative)

Calculation using the CORDIC algorithm
Andre Adrian wrote a paper about how to implement the calculation of sin/cos on Z80 CPUs. You can read the paper and find the implementation on his homepage http://home.arcor.de/andreadrian/oldcpu/Z80_number_cruncher.html .
