Question

Determine the quadrant in which the terminal side of the given angle lies. -300°

Answer 1

-270 to -360 degrees I quadrant

And for this case since -300° is between -270 to -360 degrees we can conclude that this angle is in the I quadrant

Explanation:

For this case we can solve this problem taking in count the following rule when we have negative angles:

0 to -90 degrees IV quadrant

-90 to -180 degrees III quadrant

-180 to -270 degrees II quadrant

-270 to -360 degrees I quadrant

And for this case since -300° is between -270 to -360 degrees we can conclude that this angle is in the I quadrant
