Question

how would you find the reference angle for -175 degrees?

Answer 1

-175 is almost to the 180 mark; |180-175|

Answer 2

ok. thank you! so would you use absolute value for all of these proble,s?

Answer 3

you dont have to, but it doesnt hurt. the ref ang will be a positive value; so just in case you subtract the wrong way it corrects itself

Answer 4

i think no... -175º is the same as 185º isn't it?
360-175=185

Answer 5

and say if i was given sin 150, how would i find the reference angle as that? would it be sin 30?

Answer 6

-175 or 175; doesnt matter a hill of beans; theyare each 5 away from 180

Answer 7

it would be 30 yes

Answer 8

ooohh thanks! :D

Answer 9

Answer 10
