Q. Find an angle θ coterminal to 1036∘, where 0∘≤θ<360∘.
Divide by 360: To find an angle coterminal to 1036∘ that lies between 0∘ and 360∘, we need to subtract or add multiples of 360∘ until the resulting angle is within the specified range.
Subtract Full Rotations: First, we determine how many full rotations of 360° are contained in 1036°. We do this by dividing 1036 by 360. 1036÷360≈2.877...This means that 1036° contains 2 full rotations (since we only consider the whole number part of the division result) and a part of a third rotation.
Find Coterminal Angle: Next, we subtract the full rotations from 1036∘ to find the coterminal angle. Since there are 2 full rotations, we subtract 2×360∘ from 1036∘. 1036∘−(2×360∘)=1036∘−720∘=316∘
Find Coterminal Angle: Next, we subtract the full rotations from 1036∘ to find the coterminal angle. Since there are 2 full rotations, we subtract 2×360∘ from 1036∘. 1036∘−(2×360∘)=1036∘−720∘=316∘ The result, 316∘, is the coterminal angle to 1036∘ that lies between 0∘ and 360∘.
