13-2 Angles of Rotation
An angle is in standard position when its vertex is
at the origin and one ray is on the positive x-axis.
The initial side of the angle is the ray on the x-axis.
The other ray is called the terminal side of the
angle.

13-2 Angles of Rotation
An angle of rotation is formed
by rotating the terminal side and
keeping the initial side in place.
If the terminal side is rotated
counterclockwise, the angle of
rotation is positive. If the
terminal side is rotated
clockwise, the angle of rotation
is negative. The terminal side
can be rotated more than 360°.

Coterminal angles are angles in
standard position with the same
terminal side. For example, angles
measuring 120° and – 240° are
coterminal.
There are infinitely many coterminal angles. One way
to find the measure of an angle that is coterminal
with an angle θ is to add or subtract integer
multiples of 360°.

Example 2A: Finding Coterminal Angles
Find the measures of a positive angle and a
negative angle that are coterminal with each
given angle.

65° + 360° = 425° Add 360° to find a positive
coterminal angle.
65° – 360° = –295° Subtract 360° to find a
negative coterminal angle.
Angles that measure 425° and –295° are
coterminal with a 65° angle.
