= 170degrees

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait, reference is 10degrees ( for the first )

OpenStudy (anonymous):

45degrees for the second

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and pi/8 ( or 22.5degrees for the third one )

OpenStudy (anonymous):

draw the angles on the unit circle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

remember negative angles are measured clockwise from the positive x axis

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and the reference angle is the angle t makes with the x axis

OpenStudy (amistre64):

reference angles are just the |measurement| from the x axis

OpenStudy (amistre64):

-190 is 10 degrees from the x axis -3pi/4 is 45 degrees away from the x axis

OpenStudy (amistre64):

and 5pi/8 is 3pi/8 from the x axis

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh yeh , i didnt do the third one right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thought it was like 5pi/4
