Question 935415: The terminal side of an angle is standard position intersects the unit circle at the point (.28,-.96)
Find to the nearest degree the smallest positive measure of the angle Answer by TimothyLamb(4379) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! tanA = x/|y|
tanA = .28/|-.96|
tanA = 0.28/0.96
A = atan( 0.28/0.96 )
A = 0.283794109208 radians
---
the terminal side is in the third quadrant, so add (3/2)pi radians:
---
angle = 0.283794109208 + (3/2)*3.1415
angle = 4.996 radians
angle = 4.996 radians * (180/pi degrees/radian)
angle = 4.996 radians * (180/3.1415 degrees/radian)
angle = 286.252241719 degrees
---
answer:
286 degrees
