Find a positive angle and a negative angle coterminal with 176 degree angle.

Question

Find a positive angle and a negative angle coterminal with 176 degree angle.

Answer 1

"Two angles are coterminal if they are drawn in the standard position and both have their terminal sides in the same location"

 

Coterminal angles are basically just taking the angle you have, and doing a complete rotation around the unit circle in either direction, until you reach the same spot again. A full rotation is 360 degrees, or 2π radians. You just add (going around the unit circle counterclockwise) that amount, or subtract it (going around the circle clockwise) any number of times to find coterminal angles.
