Finding Coterminal Angles

To find an angle θ coterminal to 971° within the range 0° ≤ θ < 360°, you can subtract multiples of 360° from 971° until the result falls within the given range. 971° − 360° × 2 = 971° − 720° = 251° Since 251° is within the range 0° ≤ θ < 360°, the angle \( \theta \) coterminal to 971° is 251°.
