Hi, there--
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "You first need to find the measure of a congruent angle with a degree measure between 0 degrees and 360 degrees (an angle less than or equal to one rotation around the unit circle.) You find this by adding an integer multiple of 360 to -675 degrees to give a value in that range. In this case we add 2*360=720
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "\"-675%2B%282%2A360%29=-675%2B720=45\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "An angle with a measure of -675 degrees is congruent to an angle with a measure of 45 degrees.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "45 degrees is one of those benchmark values in trigonometry. You should recognize right away that
\n" ); document.write( "\"sin%2845%29=sqrt%282%29%2F2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"cos%2845%29=sqrt%282%29%2F2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"tan%2845%29=1\".
