Write an equation or expression that would give you ALL of the coterminal angles for a particular angle given in degrees.

Example: If I wanted a way of writing all of the odd numbers in the real number system, I could say it is (2n - 1) where n is any integer.

  1. (360-a)+(360)n

    a=original angle
    n=number of times you want to go fully around

    ___
    Example:

    Angle=180
    N=1,492,001

    360-180=180
    360x1,492,001=537,120,360

    Therefore 537,120,360 is a coterminal angle for 180.

  2. Equation:
    360n+a
    a= angle measure
    n= non-zero integer

    Example:
    a= 30
    n= 15

    360(15)+30
    =5400+30
    =5430 is a coterminal angle..
