Algebra.Com's Answer #82906 by jim_thompson5910(35256)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! You are correct. You simply subtract multiples of 360 (in this case you only subtracted once) to get a smaller coterminal angle. If you were to draw these angles, you would find out that they overlap each other. \n" ); document.write( " |
