What is the reference angle for 295 degrees?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

65 degrees

OpenStudy (anonymous):

reference angles are always measured relative to the x-axis

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so when you are trying to determine the reference angle, think to yourself, where is 295 degrees located and what x-axis is it closer to? 0 degrees, 180 degrees, or 360 degrees?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

in this case it would the 360 degrees

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so you subtract 360-295= 60 degrees
