Sketching Angles and Reference Angles Sketch an angle of 275º and then find its reference angle x y The angle is a little more than that 270º so it is in the 4 th quadrant The reference angle is to the closest x-axis 275º Since it is 360º all the way around the reference angle is 360 – 275 = 85º
Sketching Angles and Reference Angles Sketch an angle of and then find its reference angle x y 4/3 is which means the angle is in the 3 rd quadrant The reference angle is to the closest x-axis Since it is half way around the reference angle is
Sketching Angles and Reference Angles Sketch an angle of and then find its reference angle x y 5/7 is.71 which means the angle is in the 3 rd quadrant because we are using a negative The reference angle is to the closest x-axis Since it is half way around the reference angle is
Working with fractions involving Find the compliment to Any time we have fractions with we use the calculator and put a 1 in for So in the calculator enter in (1/2) – (2/5) and get a decimal. Math, enter, enter to get a fraction of 1/10
