A positive angle less than 2pi that is coterminal with the angle -11pi over 3
Solution:
Two angles are coterminal when the angels themselves are different, but their sides and vertices are identical.
There is an infinite number of coterminal angles of a given angle. Additionally, there the values of the coterminal angles may be negative or positive.
To find the coterminal angle of a given angle we add or subtract 2π. 11π/3 -2π= -5 π/3
We are required to find a positive coterminal angle and hence we add 2π to it.
-5 π/3 + 2π
=π/3 radians
Given angle = -11π/3
Since the angle -11π/3 is in the first quadrant, converting it into degrees
-11π/3 = -660° = -360° - 300° = +60°
Since 360 means a complete rotation and -300° is the anti-clockwise angle of +60°
Hence, the required co-terminal angle is 60° = π/3 radians
A positive angle less than 2pi that is coterminal with the angle -11pi over 3
Summary:
A positive angle less than 2pi that is coterminal with the angle -11pi over 3 is π/3 radians.
