Find the Reference Angle (3pi)/5
Problem
Solution
Identify the quadrant in which the given angle
θ=(3*π)/5 lies. Sinceπ/2<(3*π)/5<π the angle is in Quadrant II.Apply the formula for the reference angle
θ′ in Quadrant II, which isθ′=π−θ Substitute the value of the angle into the formula:
θ′=π−(3*π)/5 Simplify the expression by finding a common denominator:
θ′=(5*π)/5−(3*π)/5=(2*π)/5
