How do you determine the quadrant in which -(11pi)/911π9 lies?

The negative means you go clockwise instead of counterclockwise to graph the angle. Then...

Explanation:

Then, since 11/9119 is a little more than one, it means the angle is a little more than \piπ (or 180 degrees). Therefore, when you graph an angle moving clockwise and go past \piπ radians, you will be in Quadrant II

Second quadrant.

Explanation:

-(11pi)/9 = -1((2pi)/9) = -pi - ((2pi)/9)11π9=1(2π9)=π(2π9)

=> 2pi - pi - ((2pi)/9) = (7pi)/92ππ(2π9)=7π9

Since (7pi)/9 > pi/27π9>π2, it is in second quadrant.

Aliter : -(11pi)/9 = -((11pi)/9) * (360/2pi) = - 220^@#

=> 360 - 220 = 140^@ = (90 + 50)^@360220=140=(90+50)

It’s in second quadrant, as 140^@140 is between 90^@90 and 180^@180
