Q. Find an angle θ coterminal to −520∘, where 0∘≤θ<360∘.Answer:
Add 360° to −520°: To find a coterminal angle, we can add or subtract multiples of 360° to the given angle until the result is within the desired range of 0° to 360°. Since −520° is negative, we will add 360° repeatedly until we get a positive angle in the correct range.
Add 360° to −160°: First addition: −520°+360°=−160°. The angle is still negative, so we need to add 360° again.
Final Coterminal Angle: Second addition: −160∘+360∘=200∘. This angle is positive and within the range of 0∘ to 360∘, so it is a coterminal angle to −520∘.
