Understanding Reference Angles and Quadrants

The video tutorial explains how to find the two smallest positive angles that satisfy given conditions for a reference angle of 68 degrees and a negative sine value. It discusses the sine function's properties, sketches possible terminal sides in the third and fourth quadrants, and calculates the angles as 248 degrees and 292 degrees, respectively.

What is the reference angle given in the problem?

• 30 degrees

• 90 degrees

• 68 degrees

• 45 degrees

In which quadrants is the sine function negative?

• Quadrants 1 and 2

• Quadrants 2 and 3

• Quadrants 3 and 4

• Quadrants 1 and 4

Why must the terminal side of angle a be in either quadrant 3 or 4?

• Because the x-coordinate is negative

• Because the y-coordinate is positive

• Because the y-coordinate is negative

• Because the x-coordinate is positive

What is the reference angle used for sketching the terminal sides in the quadrants?

• 90 degrees

• 68 degrees

• 45 degrees

• 30 degrees

Why is the reference angle important in determining the terminal side of an angle?

• It determines the length of the angle

• It forms the acute angle with the x-axis

• It helps in identifying the quadrant

• It is used to calculate the sine value

How do you calculate the smallest positive angle in the third quadrant?

• Add the reference angle to 180 degrees

• Subtract the reference angle from 180 degrees

• Add the reference angle to 360 degrees

• Subtract the reference angle from 360 degrees

What is the smallest positive angle that satisfies the given conditions?

• 360 degrees

• 180 degrees

• 248 degrees

• 292 degrees

How do you calculate the second smallest positive angle in the fourth quadrant?

• Subtract the reference angle from 360 degrees

• Add the reference angle to 360 degrees

• Add the reference angle to 180 degrees
