\[\frac{ -4 \pi }{ 3 }\]
hmmmmmm
OpenStudy (goldie1962):
Yea i have no idea
OpenStudy (sunnnystrong):
you can multiply by -1... but yeah idk is there more to the question? because -4pi/3 is not equivalent to 4pi/3
OpenStudy (goldie1962):
Nope there isn't.
OpenStudy (sunnnystrong):
yeah who knows. i would say just multiply by negative one.

The question is actually asking you to find a positive angle which is co-terminal with the given angle. So just spin forward a full rotation, 2pi.
OpenStudy (sshayer):
otherwise add 2 pi youget2 pi/3
zepdrix (zepdrix):
-4pi/3 + 2pi
OpenStudy (goldie1962):
Oh yes i forgot about co-terminal angles. Thank you!!
OpenStudy (goldie1962):
The answer is 2pi/3. Thanks soo soo much!!
